Today, the use of virtual reality to create relaxing experiences in stressful environments has received attention. This study aimed to determine the effect of virtual reality relaxation on alarm fatigue and the professional quality of life among ICU nurses.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This is an intervention study with a pretest\u2010posttest design with a control group. ICU nurses who met the inclusion criteria were selected conveniently and were randomly assigned to two intervention and control groups (30 people in each group). The intervention was implemented as three 20\u2010min virtual reality relaxation sessions over a week. The data collection tools included the Alarm Fatigue Scale (AFS) and the Professional Quality of Life (ProQOL) questionnaire. The questionnaires were completed before and immediately after the intervention.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The results showed that the mean AFS score improved significantly after the intervention (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001), and there was a significant difference between the intervention and control groups (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.014).
