Çalışmaya palyatif bakım ünitesinde yatan hastasına refakat eden 42 hasta yakını (Kontrol grubu=21, müdahale grubu=21 kişi) dahil edilmiştir. Veriler; tanıtıcı bilgi formu, Beck Depresyon Ölçeği, Beck Anksiyete Ölçeği ve Zarit Bakım Verme Yükü Ölçeği kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Müdahale grubundaki katılımcılara; bir haftaya yayılmış, toplam 10 oturumda sanal gerçeklik gözlüğüyle rahatlatıcı müzik eşliğinde videolar izletilmiştir.Bulgular: Müdahale grubunun; Beck Depresyon (p=0.025; Z=-2.247) ve Beck Anksiyete (p=0.017; Z=-2.392) ölçeklerinin son test puanlarının ön test puanlarına göre anlamlı düzeyde düştüğü saptanmıştır. Zarit Bakım Verme Yükü Ölçeği puanlarının düştüğü ancak bu düşüşün anlamlı olmadığı tespit edilmiştir (p=0.139; t=1.542). Kontrol grubunun, tüm ölçeklerden almış olduğu ön test ve son test puanları arasında anlamlı bir fark olmadığı belirlenmiştir (p>0.05). Gruplar arası karşılaştırmada ise müdahale ve kontrol grubunun Beck Depresyon Ölçeği (p=0.155; t=-1.450), Beck Anksiyete Ölçeği (p=0.351; U=183.50) ve Zarit Bakım Verme Yükü Ölçeği (p=0.928; t=0.090) son test puanları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark olmadığı belirlenmiştir.Sonuç: Sanal gerçeklik gözlüğü kullanımının; hasta yakınlarının depresyon ve anksiyete düzeylerinin düşmesine yardımcı olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ancak bakım yükü üzerinde, anlamlı bir etkisinin olmadığı tespit edilmiştir.

The study involved 42 patient relatives (21 control group, 21 intervention group) who accompanied their patients in the palliative care unit. Data were collected using a descriptive information form, Beck Depression Scale, Beck Anxiety Scale and Zarit Burden Interview. Participants in the intervention group were shown videos accompanied by relaxing music using virtual reality goggles in a total of 10 sessions for a week.Results: Beck Depression (p=0.025; Z=-2.247) and Beck Anxiety (p=0.017; Z=-2.392) scales posttest scores of the intervention group decreased significantly compared to the pre-test scores. Zarit Burden Interview scores decreased, but this decrease was not significant (p=0.139; t=1.542). It was found that there was no significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores of the control group on all scales (p>0.05). In the intergroup comparison, it was found that there was no statistically significant difference between the Beck Depression Scale (p=0.155; t=-1.450), Beck Anxiety Scale (p=0.351; U=183.50) and Zarit Burden Interview (p=0.928; t=0.090) posttest scores of the intervention and control groups.Conclusion: It was determined that the use of virtual reality goggles helped to decrease the depression and anxiety levels of patient relatives. However, it was found that it did not have a significant effect on the burden of care. CR - Ahmad Zubaidi, Z.S., Ariffin, F., Oun, C.T.C. and Katiman, D. (2020).
