The aim of this study is to determine the effects of virtual reality glasses (VRG) and meditation music on anxiety, pain, vital signs, satisfaction and pregnancy outcomes during the embryo transfer (ET) procedure.
H1: VR glasses + meditation music (1st intervention group), meditation music (2nd intervention group) application has an effect on anxiety.
H2: VR glasses + meditation music (1st intervention group), meditation music (2nd intervention group) application has an effect on pain.
H3: VR glasses + meditation music (1st intervention group), meditation music (2nd intervention group) application has an effect on vital signs (pulse rate, blood pressure, respiration).
H4: VR glasses + meditation music (1st intervention group), meditation music (2nd intervention group) application has an effect on patient satisfaction.
H5: VR glasses + meditation music (1st intervention group), meditation music (2nd intervention group) application has an effect on pregnancy outcomes.
35 women will be included in the VRG+meditation group, 35 women in the meditation group, and 35 women in the control group. The first group will be shown a nature view with VRG and will listen to meditation music 15 minutes before the ET. The second group will be shown meditation music 15 minutes before the embryo transfer. No intervention will be made in the third group. In the first two groups, anxiety, pain, vital signs (pulse, diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure, respiration, and peripheral oxygen saturation) will be assessed 15 minutes before and immediately after the ET procedure. In the first group, satisfaction with the ET procedure, VRG application, and listening to meditation music will be assessed 15 minutes after the ET procedure. In the second group, satisfaction with the ET procedure and listening to meditation music will be assessed 15 minutes after the ET procedure.
