Effect of Virtual Reality and Binaural Beat on Sleep and Comfort in Adults After Mechanical Valve Replacement Surgery

This study will compare the effects of Virtual Reality and Binaural Beat Stimulation on sleep quality and discomfort in adult patients who have undergone prosthetic mechanical valve replacement surgery. Many patients experience sleep disturbances and discomfort due to the sound of the mechanical valve. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two non-drug interventions to see which method improves sleep and reduces discomfort after surgery. The study aims to help improve recovery and comfort for patients after valve replacement.
