This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a virtual reality (VR)-based transitional care program for adult survivors of intensive care unit (ICU) care. ICU survivors frequently experience relocation stress, anxiety, pain, and physiological instability after transfer from the ICU to general wards, which may increase the risk of unplanned ICU readmission.
Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either standard transitional care or additional VR-based intervention sessions during their ICU stay. The VR intervention is designed to provide psychological support, environmental orientation, and stress reduction.
Primary outcomes include short-term physiological indicators within 48 hours after ICU transfer. Secondary outcomes include pain, relocation stress, and unplanned ICU readmission within 7 days.
