Virtual reality for pain and anxiety during fertility procedure
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether using virtual reality (VR) can reduce pain and anxiety during a procedure called HyFoSy, which checks if your fallopian tubes are open. If you qualify, you might use a VR headset during the procedure to help you relax and feel less discomfort.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman aged 18 years or older.
- You are scheduled for a HyFoSy procedure as part of your routine care.
- You do not have vision or hearing problems that would prevent you from using a VR headset.
- You have not had motion sickness, epilepsy, or schizophrenia in the past.
- You are not taking pain or anxiety medication before the procedure, unless it is part of your regular ongoing treatment.
