Virtual Reality During Transurethral Bladder Catheterization
Sponsor: Saglik Bilimleri Universitesi
Summary
Brief Summary / Aim This study aimed to determine the effect of showing videos using virtual reality goggles (VRG), in addition to routine care and follow-up, on pain, anxiety levels, and patient satisfaction during transurethral bladder catheterization (TBC). Materials and Methods This pre-test-post-test randomized controlled experimental study included patients undergoing transurethral bladder catheterization for the first time. A total of 91 participants were enrolled and randomly assigned to an intervention group (n=46) and a control group (n=45). Data were collected using the Patient Information Form (PIF), Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Beck Anxiety Scale (BAS), and Patient Satisfaction Assessment Questionnaire (PSAQ). Participants in the intervention group were shown videos using virtual reality goggles in addition to routine care during the transurethral bladder catheterization procedure. Participants in the control group received routine care. Pain, anxiety, and patient satisfaction were assessed according to the study protocol.
