Sponsor's own description

This clinical trial aims to investigate the effect of VR application on reducing preoperative anxiety and the intraoperative and postoperative pain of patients who undergo peritoneal dialysis catheter insertion. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1) Whether preoperative VR application can reduce preoperative anxiety in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis catheter insertion; 2) Whether intraoperative VR application can reduce intraoperative and postoperative pain in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis catheter insertion; 3) Whether VR application can improve patients satisfaction of the operation. Participants will be randomly assigned to the VR group and control group, and participants in the VR group will be introduced to VR use and watch a VR video about the operating room environment 1 day before the surgery. During the procedure, participants in the VR group will watch a soothing video through the VR device. In contrast, participants in the control group will receive the usual preoperative and surgical procedures. Preoperative anxiety, intraoperative and postoperative pain, and patient satisfaction will be compared between the two arms.
