Summary
This study looked at whether using virtual reality (VR) or squeezing a stress ball during insulin injections can reduce pain and anxiety in older adults (65+) with type 2 diabetes. 90 participants were split into three groups: one used VR, one used a stress ball, and one received standard care.
