Summary

Since the 60's and 70's, the soar of audiovisual technologies allowed the development of virtual reality (VR). These technologies were then adapted to help reducing anxiety and pain during medical procedures. For visual or audio stimulation, the use of glasses or helmet is frequent. However, little is know about the efficacy of technologies which are not isolating the patient from his real environment during medical care. With this study, the investigators will assess the impact of this kind of sensitive stimulation without isolating the patient, on reducing the anxiety during intravenous treatment in patients with cancer. The machine the investigators are using is projecting relaxing nature movies on the ceiling of the room, with nature sounds or relaxing music.

Relaxing Visual Immersion

During the intravenous treatment for cancer, a nature movie will be projected on the ceiling of the room, along with natural sounds or a relaxing music. The patient will choose the movie or movies he wants to watch and can decide to stop the Relaxing Visual Immersion (RVI) at any time. The RVI is a system that does not isolate the patient from his familiar or medical entourage and which integrates virtual scenarios in the environment of care.
