In addition to its contribution to the continuation of life, dialysis can significantly affect the biological and physiological balance and normal life order of patients. Some of these effects may be negative on patients. During this process, patients may frequently experience symptoms such as changes in fluid-electrolyte balance, increased fatigue, and weakness, as well as psychopathological conditions such as anxiety. In this context, it is extremely important to handle patients from a holistic perspective and keep their homeostatic balance under control during the hemodialysis process. In addition to pharmacological treatments, many integrative methods are used in the management of symptoms for reasons such as being low in cost, having fewer side effects than pharmacological treatments, and strengthening the immune system. Museum visit, one of these integrative treatment methods, has become an area of art therapy where help is received for various reasons such as coping with the symptoms of chronic diseases, reducing the side effects of medications, preventing mental depression, strengthening healthy behaviors, and avoiding tension and loss of control. In this context, the research was planned as a randomized controlled study investigating the effect of virtual museum tour on dialysis symptom index and anxiety in hemodialysis patients..T.R.
