Official title: Virtual Reality Stress and Relief Project, Research on Quantification of VR Related Stress, Motion Sickness and Visual Fatigue

Current virtual reality device makes motion sickness and visual fatigue having limitation for recreation and other clinical approaches. Still there is no standardized quantification of motion sickness and visual fatigue measurement with objective approach. Current biofeedback accompanied with virtual reality would be promising tool for stress relief.

Current virtual reality device makes motion sickness and visual fatigue having limitation for recreation and other clinical approaches. Still there is no standardized quantification of motion sickness and visual fatigue measurement with objective approach. After quantification and improvement with these shortcomings, current biofeedback accompanied with virtual reality would be promising tool for stress relief. This research aims to measure objective motion sickness and visual fatigue with psychological stress in highly stressed group, and to compare between stress relief with existing biofeedback only approach and relief with mixed biofeedback and virtual reality relaxation.

Being tested
Existing Biofeedback, Biofeedback accompanied with virtual reality

Receives: Device: Biofeedback accompanied with virtual reality

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change of Heart rate variability especially ratio of High Frequency and Low Frequency

    Measured: Baseline, after 64minutes and 30 seconds (which means cognitive distress stimuli,Serial Seven), after 85 minutes 30 seconds (after completing biofeedback or biofeedback with virtual reality relaxation)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change of Respiration Rate

    Measured: Baseline, after 64minutes and 30 seconds (which means cognitive distress stimuli,Serial Seven), after 85 minutes 30 seconds (after completing biofeedback or biofeedback with virtual reality relaxation)

  2. Psychological distress scale with Perceived Stress Scale 10

    Measured: Baseline, after 64minutes and 30 seconds (which means cognitive distress stimuli,Serial Seven), after 85 minutes 30 seconds (after completing biofeedback or biofeedback with virtual reality relaxation)

  3. Visual analogue scale for motion sickness

    Measured: Baseline, after 64minutes and 30 seconds (which means cognitive distress stimuli,Serial Seven), after 85 minutes 30 seconds (after completing biofeedback or biofeedback with virtual reality relaxation)

  4. Visual analogue scale for negative emotion

    Measured: Baseline, after 64minutes and 30 seconds (which means cognitive distress stimuli,Serial Seven), after 85 minutes 30 seconds (after completing biofeedback or biofeedback with virtual reality relaxation)

  5. Visual analogue scale for visual fatigue

    Measured: Baseline, after 64minutes and 30 seconds (which means cognitive distress stimuli,Serial Seven), after 85 minutes 30 seconds (after completing biofeedback or biofeedback with virtual reality relaxation)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Existing Biofeedback and Biofeedback accompanied with virtual reality in people with Stress, Psychological and Motion Sickness, run by Samsung Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Dec 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Hong Jin Jeon, M.D.,Ph.D. (+82-2-3410-3586, jhj001001@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change of Heart rate variability especially ratio of High Frequency and Low Frequency (time frame: Baseline, after 64minutes and 30 seconds (which means cognitive distress stimuli,Serial Seven), after 85 minutes 30 seconds (after completing biofeedback or biofeedback with virtual reality relaxation)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
