Virtual Reality Application During High Flow Nasal Oxygen Therapy in Children Effect on Anxiety Levels

Condition(s) studied

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Virtual reality goggles during HFNC: HFNC oxygen therapy will be started with video demonstration accompanied by virtual reality glasses. Physiological parameters and anxiety level will be recorded 10 minutes after HFNC oxygen treatment. Video recording will be terminated. Since the parameters in the scales should be evaluated by 2 nurses independent of the study during the study, only the behaviours of the child during the procedure should be video recorded by a mobile phone. For the participants and parents who want to participate in the study but do not approve the video recording, the parameters will be evaluated instantly by a researcher independent from the study. The study will continue until the 30-person intervention group is completed.

HFNC oxygen therapy with routine service application: HFNC oxygen therapy will be started with routine ward practice. Physiological parameters and anxiety level will be recorded 10 minutes after HFNC oxygen treatment. Video recording will be terminated. Since the parameters in the scales should be evaluated by 2 nurses independent of the study during the research, only the behaviours of the child during the procedure should be video-recorded by means of a mobile phone. For participants and parents who want to participate in the study but do not approve the video recording, the parameters will be evaluated instantly by a researcher independent from the study

Study summary

Determination of the effect of virtual reality goggles used during high-flow oxygen therapy on child anxiety in children

Eligibility

Primary outcome measure(s)

• Children's Emotional Manifestation Scale-CEMS — 1 minute before the start of the procedure and 1 minute after 10 minutes of VR viewing
  It was developed in 2003 by William Li and Lopez to assess the level of anxiety in children aged 7-12 years. The Turkish validity and reliability of the scale was carried out by Yanık et al. in 2019 with the approval and opinion of William Li and Lopez on the appropriateness of evaluating anxiety in children aged 3-6 years. The scale has 5 different categories and 25 items and is used to assess the anxiety level of children aged 3-12 years during medical interventions. In the facial expression category, the facial expressions of the child are evaluated by the researcher. In the vocalisation category, tear status is evaluated. In the movement category, the child's body language is evaluated. In the interaction category, the child's verbal/non-verbal communication status is evaluated. In the cooperation category, the child's active / passive participation is evaluated. Each category is between 1-5 points and a total score between 5-25 points is obtained. Cronbach's Alpha value is 0.969.
