Sponsor's own description
For many children in hospital, having blood tests or cannulation is a significantly distressing event physically, psychologically and emotionally. Use of distraction during invasive procedures is already common practice in paediatrics to improve the experience both for the child and parents. Use of Virtual Reality (VR) and VR Distraction Therapy (VRDT) is a relatively new concept, but has already shown promising results in studies. "VR offers an interactive distraction technique, a contrast to the passive distraction of reading a book or playing games on a tablet … and \[VR\] is thought to alter pain perception and the child's interpretation of pain signals." (Cochrane Library - Virtual reality simulation for reducing pain in children). The project aims to collect data about venepuncture, cannulation, long lines - qualitative and quantitative data - from children and parents. This studyl compares current standard practice with VR distraction therapy.
