VR glasses tested as a painkiller for artery surgery

NCT ID NCT07057752

Summary

This study tested whether using virtual reality (VR) glasses could help patients feel less pain and anxiety during a procedure to open blocked leg arteries, called peripheral angioplasty. Patients were randomly assigned to either use VR distraction or receive standard care during the procedure. Researchers measured pain and anxiety levels to see if the VR made a difference for the 52 participants.
