Summary

This study tests whether watching nature videos through virtual reality glasses can lower anxiety and improve vital signs like heart rate and blood pressure in people recovering from a heart attack in the intensive care unit. Half of the 50 participants will use VR glasses for a short session, while the other half will receive standard care. Researchers will measure anxiety levels and vital signs before and after the session to see if VR offers a calming benefit.
