Hysterosalpingography
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of virtual reality on perceived pain, anxiety, fear, physiological reactions and satisfaction in women during the HSG procedure. Hypotheses H01; In the HSG procedure, there was no difference between the pain score of the virtual reality group and the pain score of the control group. H02; In the HSG procedure, there was no difference between the anxiety score of the virtual reality group and the anxiety score of the control group. H03; In the HSG procedure, there was no difference between the satisfaction score of the virtual reality group and the satisfaction score of the control group. H04; In the HSG procedure, there was no difference between the vital signs of the virtual reality group and the control group. H05; In the HSG procedure, there was no difference between the fear score of the virtual reality group and the fear score of the control group. The study will be carried out in two different groups. The practice will start with meeting the women who apply to the Radiology clinic for an HSG. After the women are evaluated in terms of eligibility criteria for the research, the women who are eligible will be informed about the research and written informed consent will be obtained from the women who accept. The random distribution of women to the study groups will be carried out using the Block Randomization method. The following applications will be made to the groups. Virtual Reality Group In addition to the routine procedure, virtual reality glasses will be applied to the women in the virtual reality group of the research. Virtual reality glasses is a device that works on compatible smart mobile phones. After being taken to the gynecological table for the HSG procedure, the women included in the experimental group will be made to watch a video lasting an average of 10 minutes with virtual reality glasses until the procedure is completed. While watching the video, the relaxing music of the video will be played in the practice room with a bluetooth speaker. Control Group Patients in the control group of the study will not be subjected to any treatment other than the routine procedure.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in anxiety | immediately before the HSG procedure and immediately after the HSG procedure | STAI-S consist of 20 items with four points Likert scales, each (not at all, somewhat, moderately so, very much so). Scores thus range between 20, indicating a low level of anxiety and 80, indicating a high level. |
| Change in the degree of pain experienced during the procedure | immediately before the HSG procedure, and immediately after the HSG procedure, and 15 minutes after the HSG procedure | The pain was assessed using 0-100 mm VAS for determining perceptions of pain during the procedure. This scale is widely used and has demonstrated reliability and validity in the measurement of acute pain. A high score on the scale indicated a high level of pain and a score of 0 pointed to no pain at all (Bijur, Silver, & Gallagher, 2001). Each participant was asked to mark her current level of perceived pain along the scale, with the number corresponding to the marked point recorded as the pain score |
| Change in fear | immediately before the HSG procedure, immediately after the HSG procedure, and 15 minutes after the HSG procedure | VAS is a 10-cm-long measurement tool. The left end of the scale reads no fear at all and the right end reads the most intense fear possible. A high score on the scale indicated a high level of fear and a score of 0 pointed to no fear. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in body temperature | immediately before the HSG procedure, and immediately after the HSG procedure, and 15 minutes after the HSG procedure | degrees Celsius |
| Change in the saturation of peripheral oxygen SpO2 | immediately before the HSG procedure, and immediately after the HSG procedure, and 15 minutes after the HSG procedure | — |
| the degree of satisfaction | 15 minutes after the HSG procedure | VAS is a 10-cm-long measurement tool. The left end of the scale reads I am not satisfied at all and the right end reads very satisfied. A high score on the scale indicated a high level of satisfied and a score of 0 pointed to no satisfied. |
| contrast medium volume | during HSG prosedure | milliliter (ml) |
| HSG result | 15 minutes after the HSG procedure | both tubes patent, one fallopian tubes occluded, both fallopian tubes occluded |
| Change in blood pressure | immediately before the HSG procedure, and immediately after the HSG procedure, and 15 minutes after the HSG procedure | mmHg |
| Change in heart rate | immediately before the HSG procedure, and immediately after the HSG procedure, and 15 minutes after the HSG procedure | beats per minute (bpm) |
