Study Summary
The purpose of this research study is to investigate the impact of virtual reality experiences on individuals undergoing radiotherapy, aiming to assess whether this immersive technology can reduce anxiety and enhance patient overall treatment satisfaction. By comparing different virtual reality techniques and a standard informational video, the study seeks to identify optimal strategies for leveraging virtual reality to improve the patient experience during radiotherapy.
Primary Outcome
The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) is a brief and widely used self-assessment tool validated to measure anxiety in individuals undergoing medical therapy or other stressful experiences. The scale consists of 20 items, with separate scales for trait and state. Scores on the Likert scale, ranging from 0 to 4, provide an assessment of symptom severity in patients dealing with various medical conditions (state) as well as baseline status (trait). Higher scores indicate higher levels of anxiety
