Virtual reality relaxation intervention: Participants are exposed to relaxing virtual reality nature scenery videos using a VR headset for approximately 20 minutes prior to oocyte retrieval, in addition to routine care.
Standard Care Control: Participants receive routine care prior to oocyte retrieval without exposure to virtual reality.
This randomized controlled study evaluates whether exposure to relaxing virtual reality (VR) scenery prior to oocyte retrieval can reduce pain in women undergoing elective oocyte cryopreservation.
Many women experience discomfort before and after oocyte retrieval. Virtual reality has been shown to reduce pain in various medical settings by providing distraction and relaxation.
In this study, participants are randomly assigned to receive either routine care alone or routine care combined with a VR-based relaxation intervention while waiting for the procedure.
Pain is assessed using validated questionnaires and standardized scales before and after oocyte retrieval.
The results of this study may help determine whether VR can serve as a simple, safe, and non-pharmacological method to improve patient comfort during elective egg freezing.
