Summary
This study tested whether watching an animated video through virtual reality glasses before surgery could reduce anxiety and fear in children (ages 7-13) and their mothers. Sixty children having surgery for the first time and their mothers participated. The goal was to see if this simple, fun distraction could make the surgical experience less stressful for both.
