Summary
This study tested whether virtual reality glasses or simple game cards could help children aged 5 to 10 feel less fear, anxiety, and pain during wound care. Ninety kids were split into three groups: standard care, standard care with game cards, or standard care with VR. Researchers measured fear, anxiety, pain, heart rate, and oxygen levels before and after treatment to see which distraction method worked best.
