Summary

More than 90% of hand surgery is performed under local anesthesia and can be a source of anxiety, especially in an emergency context. The management of this intraoperative anxiety is essential for the comfort. The use of a virtual reality headset has shown its effectiveness in reducing anxiety in dental surgery or hand surgery under local anesthesia with the WALANT technique. On the other hand, virtual reality and the use of 3D can cause discomfort and side effects such as nausea and dizziness. It is known that audiovisual distraction also effectively reduces pain and anxiety in patients with fewer side effects.

The investigators have therefore chosen to use the RELAX® glasses. There are no publications examining the effectiveness of positive distraction as a non-pharmacological agent to improve the patient experience during emergency management in the operating room in the context of hand surgery under locoregional anesthesia. The investigatos would like to study its action on the anxiety, pain and global satisfaction.
