Summary

This study tests whether watching a 10-minute training video through virtual reality glasses on the second day after colorectal surgery can improve patients' self-efficacy—their confidence in managing their own recovery. 66 adults aged 18–65 who had laparoscopic surgery will be split into two groups: one watches the video, the other does not. Ten days after discharge, both groups fill out a survey to measure self-efficacy.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
virtual reality video training
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a simple, low-cost way to help patients feel more capable and confident after colorectal surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 66 participants. The training is brief (10 minutes) and may not have a lasting impact on self-efficacy or recovery outcomes.
