Study Summary

The purpose of this research is to evaluate whether active virtual reality reduces pain and anxiety more effectively than passive virtual reality during office-based ENT procedures. The main procedures include exposure to virtual reality (passive calming scenery or interactive puzzle game) via Paperplane Therapeutics software with VR headset or glasses during common in-office ENT procedures, participant self-report surveys (GAD-7, PHQ-9, PEG, VAS, SUDS, Likert, experience questions), and physician post-procedure survey. The study will enroll individuals 18 years or older who are scheduled to undergo common office-based ENT procedures (turbinate reduction, nasal debridement, balloon sinuplasty, radiofrequency ablation, nasal polypectomy, eustachian tube dilation, vocal fold injection, or subglottic steroid injection) at Cedars Sinai.

Primary Outcome

Post-procedure pain will be assessed using the Visual Analog Scale, ranging from 0 to 100 mm, where 0 mm indicates "no pain" and 100 mm indicates "worst imaginable pain." Higher scores indicate greater pain.
