This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether a simple intervention—watching a relaxing nature-based video—can help reduce pain, anxiety, and discomfort during a thyroid biopsy. Half of the participants will watch the video before and during their biopsy, while the other half will receive standard care without the video. The research team will measure how much pain and anxiety each group experiences to see if the intervention really helps.
Thyroid biopsies can cause significant anxiety and discomfort for patients. This trial exists to find simple, non-medication ways to help people feel calmer and more comfortable during this common medical procedure.

You will be randomly assigned to either receive the calming video intervention or standard care. If you are in the intervention group, you will watch a relaxing nature-based video on a screen just before your thyroid biopsy begins and during the procedure. Both groups will complete brief surveys before and after the biopsy to measure pain levels, anxiety, and comfort. The entire study takes place on the day of your biopsy appointment.
