Brief Summary: SUMMARY

Rationale The use of an external cephalic version ECV to rotate the fetus from a non-cephalic to cephalic presentation reduces the rate of caesarean section by approximately two-thirds in term pregnancies with breech presentation Reducing pain during external cephalic version can contribute to an increase in success rate and consequently reduce the number of cesarean sections Literature about the effectivity of virtual reality VR on acute pain reduction seems promising

Objective The primary objective of this study is to explore the effect of VR on pain during ECV Secondary objectives are the rate of successful ECV procedures and to explore tolerability feasibility and patient satisfaction of VR use

Study design The study concerns a non-blinded single centre randomised controlled trial

Study population Eligible women who fulfill the inclusion criteria and are scheduled for an external cephalic version in the Zuyderland Medical Centre location Heerlen

Intervention The study population will be randomly divided into the intervention group VR-group or the standard care group The intervention group can choose for an immersive guided relaxation VR experience or an interactive VR experience during the external version additional to the usual standard care The participants randomised to the standard care group receive the usual standard care given during external version

Main study parametersendpoints The primary outcome is pain measured on a numeric rating scale NRS A total of 42 patients have to be included in each group This means that a total of 84 women will have to be included in the study

Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation benefit and group relatedness Each participating woman is asked to complete a questionnaire after using VR and the degree of pain perception is questioned on the basis of a 0-10 score NRS The study population experiences a very small medical risk when participating to this study They can experience side-effects of VR for example dizziness or nausea and in rare cases epileptic insults
