Brief Summary:
The study was planned as a prospective, two-arm (1:1) randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effect of virtual reality applied during colposcopic biopsy on pain and anxiety. The research hypothesis of the research are as follows; H1a: There is a difference between the pain levels of the virtual reality group and the control group after colposcopic biopsy.
H1b: There is a difference between the anxiety levels of the virtual reality group and the control group after colposcopic biopsy.
Detailed Description:
Methods: In the study, 82 women who underwent colposcopic biopsy at Mersin University Hospital Gynecological Oncology Polyclinic were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. Before the application, new protective covers will be attached to the headset parts of the virtual reality (VR) glasses that the researchers already have for each woman in the experimental group. Videos with forest and sea views will be presented to the woman's preference through the VR program loaded on the phone, the video selected by the woman will be opened and the phone will be inserted into the VR glasses. After the woman is positioned for the gynecological surgical procedure, the VR glasses will be put on and will remain on during the procedure. The VR application will be terminated after the colposcopic biopsy is completed. The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) will be filled in during the procedure and 15 minutes after the colposcopic biopsy, and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-S) will be filled in before and 15 minutes after the colposcopic biopsy. Only standard care will be given to women in the control group during colposcopy. The primary expected outcome of the study is the effect of virtual reality on pain in women undergoing colposcopic biopsy. The secondary expected outcome of the study is to determine the effect of virtual reality on anxiety.
