VR goggles could replace sedation for some medical procedures

NCT ID NCT06766162

Summary

This study tested whether using virtual reality (VR) goggles could help manage pain and anxiety for patients undergoing certain endoscopic procedures to remove abnormal tissue. The goal was to see if the immersive VR experience could reduce the need for sedating drugs, which can have side effects. Researchers compared patients using VR with those receiving standard sedation to see if it was a practical and effective alternative.
