Summary

This study tested whether wearing virtual reality (VR) glasses during coronary angiography can reduce anxiety and improve vital signs like heart rate and blood pressure. 84 patients were enrolled, and researchers measured anxiety levels before and after the procedure. The goal is to offer a safe, non-drug way to help patients relax during this common heart test.

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 glasses
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, drug-free way to help patients feel calmer and more comfortable during heart procedures like coronary angiography.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 84 participants. The results may not apply to all patients or procedures, and the effect on actual medical outcomes is unknown.
