Anxiety in the Context of Chemotherapy Infusion: Is There an Association Between the Use of Virtual Reality Goggles and Changes in Anxiety-Related Symptoms?
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
I. To evaluate the effectiveness of VR therapy in reducing severity of anxiety symptoms during chemotherapy infusion, compared to participants utilizing a smartphone as a control.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate whether there is a short-term effect of VR use in anxiety levels.
II. To assess participant satisfaction with their chemotherapy infusion experience in the control and treatment groups.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:
I. To assess participants' reported adverse effects associated with VR headset use.
OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 groups.
GROUP 1: Patients use VR during chemotherapy infusion on study.
GROUP 2: Patients use smartphone during chemotherapy infusion on study.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Difference in anxiety levels
Time Frame: Before the start of chemotherapy infusion and 30-minutes of virtual reality (VR)/smartphone use is completed
|
Will be assessed in the treatment and control groups determined by the difference in the scores provided by the State Anxiety Inventory before and right after VR use.
Range of scores is 20-80, the higher score indicating greater anxiety.
Will be compared using two-sample t-test to compare the anxiety levels change before and after VR between intervention group and control group (VR vs control).
The effect of VR on anxiety levels will be described using a linear regression model addressing the unanticipated imbalance between treatment groups after randomization adjusting for the confounder.

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Short-term difference in anxiety levels
Time Frame: Before VR goggle use and immediately after chemotherapy infusion is complete
|
Will be assessed by the difference in anxiety levels right before VR use and immediately after chemotherapy infusion is completed as provided by the State Anxiety Inventory using a two sample t-test.
Range of scores is 20-80, with a higher score indicating greater anxiety.
|
Before VR goggle use and immediately after chemotherapy infusion is complete
|
Participants' satisfaction with the VR device
Time Frame: Immediately after chemotherapy infusion is complete
|
Will be assessed by an investigator-designed satisfaction questionnaire after chemotherapy completion to assess participants' satisfaction with the VR device using descriptive statistics to summarize this data.
|
Immediately after chemotherapy infusion is complete
