The level of evidence was evaluated following Melnyk and Fineout-Overholt's method. Data were synthesized in tables, figures, and in narrative form. The 47 studies in the final sample were published between 2007 and 2024, with most conducted in Turkey and predominantly clinical trials. Various models of glasses were used, with VRBox being the most cited, and video interventions were prominent. Main focuses of use included areas such as rehabilitation, invasive procedures, preoperative care, obstetrics, examinations, dentistry, and wound care. The use of virtual reality glasses has proven effective for distraction, pain reduction, and anxiety management across various health domains.

This gap leaves much unknown about designing explanatory displays that meet nurses' information needs, supporting effective use and adoption in practice settings. To address this, we aimed to describe nurses' satisfaction with explanatory information displays for machine learning clinical decision support, examine associations between the format and complexity of explanatory information and nurse satisfaction, and investigate the influence of nurse characteristics, such as numeracy and graphical literacy, on satisfaction. Our findings indicate that local feature-based explanatory information may not satisfy nurses' information needs, and that nurse age, artificial intelligence training level, and numeracy influence preferences.

Data were collected with the \"Personal Information Form,\" \"Artificial Intelligence Anxiety Scale,\" and \"Medical Artificial Intelligence Readiness Scale.\" The evaluation of the data was carried out using the IBM SPSS Statistics version 22.0 (IBM Inc., Armonk, NY, USA) package program. Descriptive statistics, a one-way analysis of variance test, Pearson correlation, and regression analysis were used to analyze the data. The total mean score of midwives from the Artificial Intelligence Anxiety Scale was 47.07 ± 12.10 in Generation X, 43.91 ± 12.63 in Generation Y, and 36.16 ± 12.61 in Generation Z ( P < .05), and the difference between the groups was significant.
