NCT ID NCT07496333
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether using virtual reality (VR) during a colonoscopy can help patients feel less pain and anxiety, and reduce the need for sedative drugs. 84 adults aged 18 to 80 took part. The idea is that VR distracts the brain, making the procedure more comfortable and potentially safer by lowering medication side effects.
