Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 5 years to 15 year old children with less than 50% total body surface area of burn injury that occurred within the past 5 days and need intravenous analgesia for pain management during dressing change

Exclusion criteria

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
the total incremental dose of Intravenous Fentanyl consumed during dressing changeTimepoint: at the end of the dressing change

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
any adverse effect due to virtual reality distraction therapyTimepoint: throughout the dressing;dresser satisfaction on the Likert ScaleTimepoint: after completion of the dressing;hemodynamic parameters like heart rate and oxygen saturationTimepoint: from fifteen minutes before to fifteen minutes after the dressing at every five minute interval;Patient and Parental Satisfaction on Likert ScaleTimepoint: after completion of dressing;time to first incremental analgesic bolus requirement and number of boluses givenTimepoint: recorded every time a bolus dose of intravenous fentanyl is given;Wong Baker FACES Pain ScaleTimepoint: Before, immediately after and 15 mins after completion of dressing
