Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Drainage with Headset Hypno VR

Drainage with Headset Hypno VR: Pleural effusion and pneumothorax will be drained with the patient wearing the virtual reality headset.

Study summary

Pleural effusion and pneumothorax are common conditions encountered in pulmonology departments and may require chest drainage. However, the chest drainage procedure can cause anxiety in patients, leading to discomfort during the procedure. The use of virtual reality (VR) for anxiety reduction has shown promising results in various medical contexts.
