First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether listening to water sounds or watching water videos through virtual reality could help children urinate with less pain and fear after surgery. Only one child took part, and the study measured pain and fear levels. The results are too limited to draw any conclusions.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- listening to water sounds and watching water videos via virtual reality
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a simple, drug-free way to help children urinate more comfortably after surgery.
- What could go wrong
- This trial included only one child, so results are not reliable. The approach may not help others and needs much larger studies.
