Perioperative use of immersive head-mounted virtual reality display enhances patient satisfaction in great saphenous vein surgery: a single-center clinical observation study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo explore the application effect of head-mounted virtual reality display immersive experience in improving the perioperative satisfaction of patients undergoing great saphenous vein surgery.
methodsA total of 158 patients undergoing saphenous vein surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital, Jiangxi Medical College, Nanchang University from January 2020 to January 2023 were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group in a 1:1 ratio, with 79 cases in each group. The observation group received head-mounted display virtual reality immersive experience, whereas the control group received midazolam. The study compared the perioperative satisfaction, changes in preoperative and postoperative anxiety and depression scores, intraoperative blood pressure and heart rate, postoperative visual analog scale (VAS) score, and the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting between the two groups. Additionally, the satisfaction of patients, anesthesiologists, and chief surgeons was compared.
resultsAll surgeries were completed successfully. Patients in the observation group exhibited higher perioperative satisfaction compared to those in the control group (P<0.001). There were no significant differences in anxiety or depression scores between the two groups before surgery (P>0.05). However, both groups showed a reduction in anxiety and depression scores postoperatively, with the observation group demonstrating lower scores than the control group (both P<0.05). The observation group also had lower intraoperative blood pressure, heart rate, postoperative VAS scores, and incidence of nausea and vomiting compared to the control group (all P<0.05). Furthermore, the satisfaction levels of the anesthesiologists and chief surgeons were higher in the observation group than in the control group (P=0.043, 0.012).
conclusionHead-mounted display virtual reality immersive experience can enhance perioperative satisfaction among patients undergoing great saphenous vein surgery, reduce anxiety and depression scores, and contribute to the stabilization of hemodynamics during surgery, thereby decreasing postoperative nausea and vomiting.
