* The patient will be prepared for the virtual reality application and fistula puncture and will be given a comfortable sitting position.
* Virtual reality glasses will be put on the patient 6 minutes before the fistula puncture and the application will be started.
* The patient will continue to monitor the virtual reality application during the fistula puncture procedure. It will be ensured that no communication with the patient is made until the application is finished.
