The Effect of Using Virtual Reality Glasses and Gaming Cards on Fear, Anxiety, and Physiological Parameters in Children Administered Inhaler Medication

This study aims to evaluate the effects of using virtual reality headsets and play cards during the administration of inhaler medication in pediatric patients. The primary goal is to determine how these distraction methods influence children\'s fear, anxiety levels, and physiological parameters (such as heart rate and oxygen saturation). The study population consists of pediatric patients aged between 4 and 6 years. Data collection for the targeted sample size of 150 children commenced in September, and the recruitment process is currently ongoing.Children receiving inhaler treatments often experience fear and anxiety, which can negatively affect their treatment compliance and vital signs. In this study, participants are divided into different groups to compare the effectiveness of virtual reality headsets and traditional play cards as distraction tools.
