Virtual reality glasses to reduce stress before heart test
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether wearing virtual reality glasses before a heart test can help you feel calmer and reduce muscle tension. If you're scheduled for a coronary angiography, you might find this helpful for lowering stress.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether wearing virtual reality glasses during a heart catheterization or pacemaker procedure can help you feel calmer and keep your heart rate and blood pressure stable. It may be a drug-free way to reduce stress during the procedure.
This trial tests whether a virtual reality-guided breathing exercise helps children feel more comfortable before an angiography (a heart imaging procedure). If your child qualifies, they will practice controlled breathing using a VR headset to see if it reduces anxiety and improves the experience.
This study tests whether wearing virtual reality glasses during a coronary angiography (a heart imaging test) can reduce anxiety and prevent a common side effect called vasospasm (a temporary narrowing of the artery in your wrist). If effective, it could make the procedure more comfortable and safer for you.
This study tests whether wearing a virtual reality headset during a colposcopy (a procedure to examine the cervix) can help reduce anxiety, stress, and pain. You would be randomly assigned to either use VR or receive standard care during the procedure.
This study tests whether using a virtual reality headset before an upper endoscopy (a camera test of your stomach) helps lower anxiety and makes you feel more ready. It may also improve how satisfied you are with the procedure afterwards.
This trial tests different methods, including medicine and virtual reality, to help reduce anxiety in people having a heart catheter procedure. It aims to find the best way to help you feel calmer during the procedure.
