Özet:

 Aim: This study was conducted as a non-randomized control group experimental study to determine the effect of virtual reality glasses on vital signs and state anxiety levels in cancer patients. Method: The sample of the study consisted of 30 patients who were assigned to the intervention and control groups by the stratified sampling method. After the chemotherapy infusion was started, the intervention group was provided with relaxing 3D videos of their choice. Both groups were re-administered the situational anxiety scale with the measurement of vital signs at the end of the chemotherapy infusion. Results: The mean score of the post-chemotherapy state anxiety scale in the intervention group was 30.608.20, while in the control group it was 39.708.82, and this difference was statistically significantly higher p 0.05. Although there was no statistical significance in the saturation values measured before and after chemotherapy in the intervention group, it was determined to be higher after chemotherapy p0.05.When the control group was examined, although there was a statistically significant difference in heart rate and saturation values t3.962; p0.000, Z-2.837; p0.005 before chemotherapy, it was lower than the values of the intervention group. Conclusion: As a result, virtual reality glasses had a positive effect on the anxiety levels and vital signs of the patients.

 Amaç: Bu çalışma, kanser hastalarında sanal gerçeklik gözlüklerinin yaşam belirtileri ve durumluk kaygı düzeylerine etkisini belirlemek amacıyla randomize olmayan kontrol gruplu deneysel bir çalışma olarak yapılmıştır. Yöntem: Araştırmanın örneklemini tabakalı örnekleme yöntemiyle müdahale ve kontrol grubuna atanan 30 hasta oluşturmuştur. Kemoterapi infüzyonu başlatıldıktan sonra müdahale grubuna kendi seçecekleri rahatlatıcı 3 boyutlu videolar sunuldu. Kemoterapi infüzyonu sonunda yaşamsal belirtilerin ölçümü ile her iki gruba da durumsal kaygı ölçeği yeniden uygulandı. Bulgular: Müdahale grubunda kemoterapi sonrası durumluk kaygı ölçeği puanı ortalaması 30,608,20, kontrol grubunda ise 39,708,82 olup bu fark istatistiksel olarak anlamlı derecede yüksekti p0,05. Müdahale grubunda kemoterapi öncesi ve sonrası ölçülen satürasyon değerlerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulunmazken, kemoterapi sonrası daha yüksek olduğu belirlendi p0.05.Kontrol grubu incelendiğinde kemoterapi öncesi kalp hızı ve satürasyon değerlerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark olmasına rağmen t3.962; p0.000, Z-2.837; p0.005, müdahale grubunun değerlerinden düşüktü. Sonuç: Sonuç olarak sanal gerçeklik gözlüklerinin hastaların kaygı düzeyleri ve yaşamsal belirtileri üzerinde olumlu etkisi olduğu görüldü.
