Distracting Through Procedural Pain and Distress Using Virtual Reality and Guided Imagery in Pediatric, Adolescent, and Young Adult Patients: Randomized Controlled Trial

Distracting Through Procedural Pain and Distress Using Virtual Reality and Guided Imagery in Pediatric, Adolescent, and Young Adult Patients: Randomized Controlled Trial

VR has been used to assist with pediatric procedural distress in several contexts over the past 20 years such as burn care [12,13], dental procedures [14-16], intravenous needle sticks [17-25], and port access [26-28]. Reviews of VR use have been positive, with most suggesting that VR is a feasible and efficacious method of distraction that can reduce patient-reported pain and distress [29].
