Study on the Ability of Virtual Reality Glasses in Anxiety and Pain Reduction in 50 Women Undergoing Amniocentesis or Feticide

Study on the Ability of Virtual Reality Glasses in Anxiety and Pain Reduction in 50 Women Undergoing Amniocentesis or Feticide

Recruiting
18-50 years
Female
Phase N/A

Overview

Both amniocenteses and especially feticide are procedures that incorporate both anxiety and pain. As anxiety and pain can be reduced when using a distraction, The investigators speculate that the use of virtual reality glasses during these procedures will elevate both anxiety and pain.

The investigators will examine this hypothesis by comparing two groups of participants who undergo amniocentesis or feticide, one group will undergo the procedure while using virtual reality glasses and the other without the use of the glasses.
