Using Virtual Reality to Reduce Procedural Pain in Children With Cancer: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
This study will assess the impact of virtual reality (VR) in decreasing procedural pain related to subcutaneous port (SCP) access in children with cancer.
The study is a pilot-randomized controlled trial (RCT) using a cross-over design that will provide us with detailed information on the feasibility of implementing our trial protocol in a future multi-center RCT as well as preliminary estimate of VR treatment effect on children with cancer undergoing SCP access, including child and parent factors potentially associated with VR distraction treatment efficacy.
調査の概要
詳細な説明
The study is a repeated-measures cross-over pilot RCT to examine the feasibility of the trial protocol for a study into the effectiveness of immersive VR in minimizing procedural pain and distress in children with cancer.
The research objectives are to: (1) pilot implementing immersive virtual reality (VR) for effectiveness testing in a future RCT (measured as implementation outcomes); (2) determine treatment effect sizes (measured as preliminary effectiveness outcomes), between VR, programmed to distract children during an SCP needle insertion, and an active control intervention (i.e., watching a video with headphones); and (3) assess impact of child and parent factors potentially associated with VR treatment effectiveness.
Both the intervention and control groups will receive standard medical care (e.g., topical anesthetics).
A convenience sample of 40 children and adolescents with cancer (20 participants per treatment arm; 10 boys and 10 girls per treatment arm) will be recruited.
In addition, each child will act as their own control.
A washout period of 1 month will be used to control for any carry-over effect between conditions.
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 oncology-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.

実験的：Intervention Group
In addition to usual care, the intervention group will receive the Samsung GearVR with head mounted display (HMD), controller, and headphones.
They will situated in front of the nurse and beside/on the lap of the parent, or they may be lying supine.
The VR intervention will use auditory and visual stimuli (simulating the peaceful underwater environment) to distract the child before, during, and after the SCP needle insertion.
Children will be allowed to 'try-out' the VR system before the SCP access to familiarize themselves with the equipment.
The entire study will be videotaped.

アクティブコンパレータ：Control Group
In addition to usual care, participants in the control group will be seated with their parent and in front of the nurse, according to preference.
Children will watch an age appropriate video selected by an oncology-affiliated child life specialist on an iPad, while wearing the same headphones used in the experimental condition.
The RA will hold the iPad and positioned within a meter of the child so that the child can still see the iPad without the RA interfering in the clinical procedure.
The entire study will be videotaped.

Pain Intensity
時間枠：6 months
|
For both pre and post study procedures, children will self report their pain and parents, nurses and the RA will report children's pain using an 11 point NRS scale (0 being no pain at all and 10 being the most pain you can imagine this child or you having)
|
