Brief Summary: The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of VR on post-operative pain and anxiety management in cardiac surgery patients undergoing a coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) procedure.

Participants in the intervention group will receive a 20 minute session with the head mounted VR device on post-operative days 1,2 and 3.

Participants in the control group will be treated with conventional post-operative care.
Detailed Description: Objective: The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of VR on post-operative pain and anxiety management in cardiac surgery patients undergoing a coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) procedure.

Study design: This study is a single-center randomized control trial.

Study population: Patients who have undergone a CABG procedure (n=100).

Intervention: The intervention group (n=50) will use the VR distraction therapy device at day 1, 2 and 3 after surgery on the general ward. The control group (n=50) will be treated with conventional post-operative pain and anxiety management.

Main study parameters/endpoints: The main study parameters at day 1, 2 and 3 after surgery. These are the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) to assess the effect of pain on mobility, the Quality of Recovery-15 questionnaire, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-6 questionnaire and assessment of analgesic use. At follow-up, participants will be called to gather one-time QoR-15 and STAI-6 questionnaire data 6 weeks after the surgery.
