Brief Summary:
Surgical interventions while significant milestones in patients39 physical recovery processes can be a major source of concern for patients due to postoperative pain which is also an important component of postoperative care If postoperative pain is not managed properly it can lead to increased levels of anxiety and fear as well as deterioration in overall comfort and quality of life The ineffective management of postoperative pain has economic and medical consequences such as patient dissatisfaction delayed hospital discharge increased rates of hospital readmission and dissatisfaction with medical care Therefore effective management of postoperative pain is of great importance for patient well-being Factors associated with postoperative pain have been reported in many studies For example being female and the type of surgery Therefore considering gender and type of surgery in the management of postoperative pain is crucial to optimize the recovery process for patients In recent years research on the use of innovative technologies such as virtual reality in the management of postoperative pain has increased Virtual reality can reduce postoperative pain by creating a sense of being in a different environment for patients and diverting their attention away from pain
Detailed Description:
Understanding the use of virtual reality applications in the medical field and their effects on pain perception and sensitivity in women is important This study aims to evaluate the potential impact of virtual reality technology on pain and anxiety during the postoperative period in women aged 50-70 The research will be conducted at Osmaniye State Hospital The general hypotheses of this study are that virtual reality application is effective in reducing postoperative pain and anxiety The sub-hypotheses aim to determine the effect of virtual reality application among women undergoing two different types of surgeries total knee replacement and hysterectomy The method used in the research includes a randomized controlled trial design involving application and control conditions across four different groups Data will be collected through a questionnaire The questionnaire will gather participants39 demographic information and their pain levels will be assessed using the Visual Analogue Scale VAS while their anxiety levels will be evaluated using the Beck Anxiety Scale After the pre-test virtual reality application will be administered to experimental groups with two different types of surgeries No intervention will be applied to the control group before the post-test Ethical approval and written informed consent will be obtained from the participants Participants39 postoperative pain and anxiety levels analgesic usage amounts and frequencies will be recorded and feedback related to their virtual reality experiences will be obtained In the study the rotation method will be used to randomly assign participants to experimental and control groups The rotation method aims to place each patient sequentially into the next group For example the first patient undergoing total knee replacement surgery will be assigned to Group 1 and then the second patient undergoing total knee replacement surgery will be assigned to Group 2 the first patient undergoing hysterectomy surgery will be assigned to Group 3 and the second patient undergoing hysterectomy surgery will be assigned to Group 4 Thus separate control and application groups will be formed for each type of surgery This study is original and important as it will be the first study in our country to evaluate the impact of virtual reality on pain and anxiety in 50-70-year-old women according to the type of surgery
