Summary

The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of the virtual reality glasses device on the child's emotional responses during invasive interventions in child health services.

The main question it aims to answer are:

\- Is there a difference between the emotional responses of children who watched cartoons with virtual reality glasses (experimental group) and the children in the control group during the intravenous catheter insertion process? First, the descriptive data form for the children was filled out for the control and study groups. Then, to distract the children during the application of the intravenous catheter, they watched cartoon videos of their choice for the 7-12 age group through virtual reality glasses by using a free internet application throughout the procedure. The procedure started with tying the tourniquet and continued until the intravenous catheter insertion was completed. During this period, the child's emotional responses were evaluated with the Children's Emotional Manifestation Scale. No intervention was applied to the control group. throughout the process the child's emotional responses were evaluated with the Children's Emotional Manifestation Scale.

No intervention was applied to the control group.

The population of the study consisted of children who were aged between 7- 12 and were on treatment using an intravenous catheter in the pediatric emergency unit of a state hospital in Turkey.Participants were divided into two groups, namely experimental and control groups, by using simple randomization software. The design and implementation of the study were based on the principles in the CONSORT list (Consolidated Standards of Reporting Studies). Descriptive data form for children,this form was prepared to collect information about the children included in the sample. It consists of seven questions on children's sociodemographic characteristics and previous intravenous catheter insertion experience.The Children's Emotional Manifestation Scale (CEMS), this scale was developed by Li \& Lopez (2005) to measure children's emotional responses during stressful medical procedures. The VR glasses we used in our study were connected to a mobile phone.
