Virtual Reality (VR) for Prone Pain Procedures
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) distraction in patients undergoing interventional pain procedures in the prone position. VR has been shown to improve patient experience during interventional pain procedures, however, many of these procedures are done in the prone position making VR a challenge. This study will evaluate the effect of a VR headset and support in patients undergoing prone interventional pain procedures compared to control.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Anxiety Score [Immediately before procedure]
State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (Self-reported anxiety instrument containing two separate 2-item subscales that measure trait (baseline) and state (situational) anxiety; Total range 20 to 80 with higher scores indicating greater anxiety).
- Anxiety Score [Immediately after procedure]
State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (Self-reported anxiety instrument containing two separate 2-item subscales that measure trait (baseline) and state (situational) anxiety; Total range 20 to 80 with higher scores indicating greater anxiety).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Anxiety Score [Immediately before procedure, during procedure, and immediately after procedure]
Anxiety score on an 11-point numerical rating scale (Total range 0-10 with higher scores indicating greater pain)
- Pain Score [Immediately before procedure, during procedure, and immediately after procedure]
Pain score on an 11-point numerical rating scale (Total range 0-10 with higher scores indicating greater pain)
- Global Impression of Change [Immediately after procedure]
Global Impression of Change on a 7-point scale (Lower scores indicating decline in clinical status, and higher scores indicating improvement in clinical status)
- Patient Experience Satisfaction [Immediately after procedure]
Experience Satisfaction on an 11-point scale (Total range 0-10 with higher scores indicating higher patient experience satisfaction)
- Sedation Requirements [During course of procedure]
Amount of benzodiazepines and opioid medications given
