The Effect of Virtual Reality Glasses Used During Burn Dressing in Children on Parents' Satisfaction Level and Anxiety
Condition: Randomized
Study type: Observational

Summary: 
      The study was planned as a prospective randomized controlled study and was carried out in the
      Training and Research Hospital burn unit outpatient clinic between 05.7.2021-1.04.2022. The
      population of the study consisted of the parents of children aged 5-10 years who applied to
      the burn unit polyclinic for dressing between the dates of the study. A total of 52 people
      were included in the research group. Data were collected by using the "Survey Form"
      consisting of 10 questions, "Newcastle Nursing Satisfaction Scale" and "Beck Anxiety Scale".
    

Detailed description: 
      In this study, the "Beck Anxiety Inventory" was applied to the parents before and after the
      burn dressing, while the "Newcastle Satisfaction with Nursing Scale" was applied only after
      dressing.

      Control Group (n=26): "Parent Information Form" and "Beck Anxiety Inventory" were completed
      by the researcher nurse after obtaining the consent of the family and the children in the
      control group. After filling out the form, the parent and child were taken to the dressing
      room, and the researcher nurse was with both the child and the parent throughout the dressing
      and answered all the questions that the parent and child had. After the dressing, the child
      was taken to the waiting room and it was waited for the child to calm down, and "Beck Anxiety
      Inventory" and "Newcastle Satisfaction with Nursing Scale" were applied to the parent by the
      researcher nurse.

      The Intervention Group (n=26): "Parent Information Form" and "Beck Anxiety Inventory" were
      completed by the researcher nurse after obtaining the consent of the family and the children
      in the intervention group. Then, the parent and child were taken to the dressing room and the
      child was put on virtual reality headsets and he/she watched a cartoon he/she liked. During
      this time, all the questions that both the child and the parent had have been answered. After
      the dressing, the virtual reality headsets were removed, the child was taken to the waiting
      room and the "Beck Anxiety Inventory" and "Newcastle Satisfaction with Nursing Scale" were
      applied to the parents. During all these processes, procedures were carried out in accordance
      with the protocols and principles established within the scope of the "COVID-19 Pandemic
      Measures" published by the Ministry of Health.

Study population: 
        In order to determine the number of samples, power analysis was performed using the G*power
        program. The effect size coefficient was calculated by using the Newcastle satisfaction
        scale averages in source 1 (thesis), and the effect size = 0.76, and it was decided to
        recruit at least 26 people in each group in order to obtain 80% power at the ɑ=0.05 level,
        a total of 52 people in the two groups.
