Immersive Virtual Reality to Reduce Procedural Pain During IV Insertion in Children in the Emergency Department

7 de octubre de 2019 actualizado por: Jennifer Stinson, The Hospital for Sick Children

Immersive Virtual Reality to Reduce Procedural Pain During IV Insertion in Children in the Emergency Department: A Feasibility Pilot Study

Venipuncture and intravenous (IV) access continue to be the most common causes of pain and distress among children in the pediatric emergency department. Virtual reality has been successful for reducing pain and fear in many clinical scenarios, including port access in oncology patients, anxiety disorders, phobias, burn and wound care and others. There is only one previous study examining virtual reality distraction to reduce procedural pain during IV insertion in pediatric patients and no previous studies examining this in the emergency department setting. In this study, the investigators will compare immersive virtual reality (an interactive underwater environment) to the current standard (tablet device/iPad playing a movie) for distraction to reduce procedural pain during IV insertion. The investigators hypothesize that the immersive quality of the virtual reality will reduce patient's pain scores, fear scores and tachycardia during and after the procedure, and have minimal effect on departmental flow and nursing satisfaction. If this feasibility pilot study yields positive results, the investigators plan to expand to a larger randomized control trial.

Descripción detallada

This study is a pilot randomized control trial that aims to (a) to determine the differences in self-reported and proxy-reported pain and fear during IV insertion between the interactive VR intervention and control group, and (b) to assess the feasibility (safety, acceptability) of the VR intervention to children/families and the healthcare team in the pediatric emergency department. The study will consist of two study arms, where both study arms will be screened and recruited using the same procedure. Participants will be randomized into either (1) Control group: child life specialist plays an age-appropriate video on a tablet device, or (2) Intervention (VR Distraction): child life specialist facilitates immersive VR experience. Both the intervention and control groups will receive standard medical care (e.g., topical anesthetics). A convenience sample of 80 children and adolescents with cancer (40 participants per treatment arm; 20 boys and 20 girls per treatment arm) will be recruited. In addition to usual care, children in the experimental condition will wear the VR headset plus headphones. In the control condition, children will watch a video (i.e., an age-appropriate video selected by an emergency department affiliated child life specialist) on an iPad, while wearing the same headphones as in the experimental condition. Implementation outcomes include accrual and retention rates, acceptability and technical difficulties. Effectiveness outcomes include child pain, distress, and fear, as well as parent distress.

Armas e Intervenciones

Grupo de participantes/brazo
Intervención / Tratamiento
Experimental: Intervention Group (VR)
The patient will be allowed to 'try-out' the VR system (including all auditory and visual features) for ~5 minutes prior to the start of the procedure. In addition to usual care, consisting of child-life presence and topical analgesics if ordered by the treating medical team, children in the experimental condition will wear the VR HMD plus headphones and hold the VR controller.
Dispositivo: Virtual Reality Program
VR with head mounted display (HMD) and headphones.
Comparador activo: Control Group (Standard Care - Video)
The patient will be allowed to watch an age-appropriate video on a tablet device. The patient will be offered to wear the same headphones as in the experimental condition. The patient will have the tablet and headphones for ~5 minutes prior to the start of the procedure. In addition, the patient will receive standard care consisting of a child life specialist and topical analgesics (if ordered by the treating medical team).
Dispositivo: iPad Tablet
iPad with headphones

Medidas de resultado primarias

Medida de resultado
Medida Descripción
Periodo de tiempo
Change in Pain Intensity
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, 30 minutes after baseline
Using an 11 point Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) (0 being no distress at all and 10 being the most distress you can imagine this child or you having) children will self-report their pain and parents, nurses and the researcher will report children's pain BOTH prior to and following the procedure.
Baseline, 30 minutes after baseline
Change in Child Distress
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, 30 minutes after baseline
Using an 11 point Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) (0 being no distress at all and 10 being the most distress you can imagine this child or you having) children will self-report their distress and parents, nurses and the researcher will report children's distress BOTH prior to and following the procedure
Baseline, 30 minutes after baseline
Change in Child Fear
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline, 30 minutes after baseline
Children will report fear BOTH prior to and following the procedure using the Child Fear Scale (CFS) which is a 5-face visual scale that measures fear intensity and is validated in children as young as 5 years. It consists of a 1-question scale rating fear from 0 - 4, based on the faces provided. A higher number represents higher fear intensity.
Baseline, 30 minutes after baseline
Child Pain Catastrophizing
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline
Children will report baseline tendencies to catastrophize about pain using the Pain Catastrophizing Scale - Child (PCS-C). This is a self-report measure of children's tendency to catastrophize about pain validated in children 8-18 years of age. 6-items responded to on an 11-point scale from 0 ("not at all") to 10 ("a lot"), with a higher number representing higher pain catastrophizing.
Baseline
Parent Pain Catastrophizing
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline
Parents will report baseline tendencies to catastrophize about their child's pain using the Pain Catastrophizing Scale - Parent (PCS-P), which is a self-report measure of parents' tendency to catastrophize about their child's pain validated in parents of children 8-18 years of age. 6-items responded to on an 11-point scale from 0 ("not at all") to 10 ("a lot"), with a higher number representing higher parental pain catastrophizing of their child's pain.
Baseline
Parent Distress
Periodo de tiempo: 30 minutes after baseline measures are completed
Parents will report on their own level of distress following the child's procedure using the Parent Distress Questionnaire. This measure consists of 4-items responded to on an 11-point numeric rating scale from 0 ("not at all") to 10 ("extremely"). A higher number value represents higher distress levels.
30 minutes after baseline measures are completed
Child Presence Measure
Periodo de tiempo: 30 minutes after baseline measures are completed
This child self-report measure assesses effectiveness of the immersive aspect of the VR toolkit/iPad using 12 questions, a choice of three answers ("no", "a little", and "a lot").
30 minutes after baseline measures are completed
