The Effect of Virtual Reality Based Relaxation Program on Patients to be Performed Bronchoscopy
Condition: Bronchoscopy; Virtual Reality; Glasses; Relaxation Program
Study type: Interventional

Summary: 
      With the virtual reality application in patients with bronchoscopy, it is aimed to reduce the
      fear, stress and tension arising from the possibility of the development of pain and
      complications in the patients. The research will be carried out in the form of
      pretest-posttest application with 30 experimental and 30 control groups. The researcher aims
      to minimize the fear and stress in the patient by applying the virtual reality application to
      the patient in the experimental group 10 minutes before the procedure and 5-10 minutes during
      the procedure. The researcher will download the licensed program called 'a walk on the beach'
      to the virtual reality glasses and the patient will watch this program with glasses. The
      patient in the experimental group will have to fill in the Visual Analogue Scale, Anxiety
      Evaluation Form, Anxiety Symptoms Follow-up Form, and Patient Information Form before the
      procedure. 10-15 minutes after the procedure, the patient will be asked to fill the Visual
      Analogue Scale, Anxiety Evaluation Form, Anxiety Symptoms Follow-up Form and the Virtual
      Reality Glasses Application Satisfaction Form. No procedure will be applied to the patients
      in the control group and they will be asked to fill in the Patient Information Form, Visual
      Analogue Scale Form, Anxiety Evaluation Scale Form, and Anxiety Symptoms Follow-up Form
      before the procedure. After the procedure, he will be asked to fill in the other forms again,
      except the Patient Information Form. Patients over the age of 18, who have no communication
      problems, no psychiatric problems, who volunteered to participate in the study, and who had
      local application in bronchoscopy will be included in the study. Patients with psychiatric
      problems and communication problems will not be included in the study. Before the procedure,
      the patient will be informed that his/her identity information will be kept confidential and
      that he/she can withdraw from the research at any time, and all his/her rights will be
      informed.
    

Detailed description: 
      This study includes the examination of the effect of applying virtual reality interventions,
      which are used for the treatment of anxiety problems, to patients who will undergo
      bronchoscopy. For this purpose, first of all, a relaxation intervention will be designed in a
      virtual reality environment. The virtual reality environment will be organized on the basis
      of relaxation exercise. In this direction, first of all, an image will be created by taking
      3D modeling service and the text of the relaxation exercise prepared in the presence of a
      professional sound artist will be transferred to the image with sound. Afterwards, the
      relaxation exercise created will be applied to the patients before and during the
      bronchoscopy application. The aim of this study; It is aimed to examine the Effect of Virtual
      Reality Based Relaxation Program on Pain Severity, Anxiety Level and Patient Satisfaction in
      Patients to be Performed Bronchoscopy.
