About this study

This randomised controlled study evaluates whether virtual reality (VR) can support patient comfort and help reduce anxiety and stress during subcutaneous venous port implantation in adult oncology patients. Patients will be assigned to standard care or standard care with VR intervention. Subjective and objective measures of stress and discomfort will be collected, including the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for self-reported procedural discomfort, physiological parameters (blood pressure, heart rate, variability), the STAI-6 questionnaire, and salivary cortisol. The study aims to explore the potential of VR as a non-pharmacological, immersive tool to improve procedural experience and reduce psychological distress in patients undergo-ing minor oncological procedures.
