Summary

Context: This study is part of the larger Immersive Care project which (in short) seeks the connection between technology and care by conducting feasibility studies with promising technological interventions tailored to care.

This is one of the case studies from the larger project titled: 360 ° video VR surgery preparation: feasibility, acceptability, tolerability and initial effectiveness of virtual reality for children in a Flemish hospital.

Domain: This scientific study will take place in 1 hospital on the pediatric ward. The target group consists of children between 6 and 12 years of age who will undergo an operation, the parents and the care providers involved.

Target:

1. Assess the acceptability, feasibility and tolerability of the 360 ° video VR surgery preparation.
2. Assess the effectiveness of the 360 ° video VR surgery preparation on preoperative procedural anxiety in children, comparing the intervention with care as usual (CAU \*).

* CAU in this study is a picture book which is a kind of animated video with text to explain what will happen on the day of the operation.
