Shockwave Lithotripsy, Pain, Anxiety
About this trial
This is an interventional supportive care trial for Shockwave Lithotripsy
Eligibility Criteria

The routine ESWL procedure will be applied. Pre-procedural anxieties will be evaluated with the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-State Anxiety Scale. After the ESWL procedure, their anxiety will be re-evaluated with the same scale, and their pain will also be evaluated with the Visual Analog Scale.
The pre-procedure anxiety of the patients who will use virtual reality glasses during the ESWL process will be evaluated with the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-State Anxiety Score. After the ESWL procedure, their anxiety will be re-evaluated with the same scale and in addition to the pain, the pain will be evaluated with the Visual Analog Scale.
