Virtual reality glasses for comfort during cesarean section
Treatments studied
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether wearing virtual reality glasses during a cesarean section with spinal anesthesia can make you more comfortable and satisfied. If you are having a repeat cesarean and are awake during the surgery, this might help you feel more at ease.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 45 years old.
- You are having a repeat cesarean section (not your first) with spinal anesthesia, meaning you are awake but numb.
- You are pregnant with only one baby (not twins or more).
- You can speak and understand Turkish.
- You do not have serious pregnancy or medical problems that would require general anesthesia or an emergency cesarean.
- You have no vision or hearing problems, or psychiatric or neurological conditions that would prevent you from using virtual reality glasses.
