Official title
Active vs. Passive Virtual Reality for Reducing Pain and Anxiety During Office-based ENT Procedures
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this research is to evaluate whether active virtual reality reduces pain and anxiety more effectively than passive virtual reality during office-based ENT procedures. The main procedures include exposure to virtual reality (passive calming scenery or interactive puzzle game) via Paperplane Therapeutics software with VR headset or glasses during common in-office ENT procedures, participant self-report surveys (GAD-7, PHQ-9, PEG, VAS, SUDS, Likert, experience questions), and physician post-procedure survey. The study will enroll individuals 18 years or older who are scheduled to undergo common office-based ENT procedures (turbinate reduction, nasal debridement, balloon sinuplasty, radiofrequency ablation, nasal polypectomy, eustachian tube dilation, vocal fold injection, or subglottic steroid injection) at Cedars-Sinai.
