Study summary

Virtual reality has been shown to reduce the pain experienced during medical procedures.

The aim of this study is to determine to what extent the use of this technique could make it possible to defer the administration of neuroleptanalgesia during the endovenous thermal treatment of superficial varicose veins in addition to local anaesthesia by tumescence.
