Abstract
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the fully immersive virtual reality (FIVR) program changes in the autonomic nervous system (ANS) by age according to heart rate variability (HRV). Methods: A total of 44 subjects were classified into group 1(aged 20-30), group 2(aged 40-60), and group 3(aged 70 and above). The study analyzed the HRV using a pulse wave analyzer and compared the ANS changes before and after applying the FIVR of the group. The LF, HF, RMSSD, and SDNN were measured. Fifteen minutes of virtual reality applications were applied to all subjects, and 1 min of rest was given in the middle of the session. A was used for anteroposterior comparisons of the ANS. Results: The HF, LF, RMSSD, and SDNN values were not statistically significant in all groups, but they all increased. The RMSSD value was statistically significant because it increased in group 3 (p<0.05). Those of the other two groups were not statistically significant (p<0.05). Conclusion: An FIVR program does not have a negative effect on the ANS response.
