IV placement with Virtual Reality for Pediatric Intravenous Placement
Study Summary
This study aims to prospectively investigate the use of virtual reality headsets on the placement of IVs in a pediatric emergency department, by comparing the first stick success rate, total number of attempts, and the time to successful IV placement between patients who use virtual reality headset technology during the placement and those who receive the standard of care IV placement when child life ( individuals with special training in aiding and augmenting pediatric coping skills) is not available. The investigators will also compare the patient and parent perception of pain and anxiety associated with the IV placement in both study groups. Finally, by detailing which medications have been given prior to use of the VR for IV placement the investigators may evaluate for possible synergistic effects of VR with prior medication administration.
