Virtual worlds ease pain for young leukemia patients

NCT ID NCT06697275

Summary

This study is testing whether using virtual reality (VR) headsets can help children and teenagers with leukemia feel less pain and anxiety when they need repeated needle insertions into their chest port for treatment. Over 3 months, researchers will compare VR distraction to standard care for 120 participants aged 6-16. The goal is to see if immersive VR games or relaxing scenes make these necessary but stressful procedures easier to bear.
