First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether using virtual reality (VR) during arteriovenous fistula surgery—a procedure for dialysis patients—can lower pain, anxiety, and the need for anesthesia. About 64 adults with end-stage kidney disease will be randomly assigned to receive VR or standard care while awake during the operation. The goal is to see if VR makes the experience less stressful and improves patient comfort.
