Here's how you can enhance healthcare delivery using virtual reality technology.

Virtual reality training is really taking off. In my experience some organizations are using more VR than ever and the learners are very happy with the results.

En el hospital que yo trabajo existe una unidad de entrenamiento quirúrgico a través de simulación de los procedimientos. Sin dudas, que la realidad virtual tiene un gran campo en esta área. Donde todavía no la he visto tanto es en el campo del entretenimiento de áreas clínicas donde uno podría simular situaciones con pacientes para capacitar a alumnos y fellows.

We are exploring the use of VR to explain the complexity of immunotherapy mechanism of action and the long list of toxicities. About to enrol our first patient into our 36 pt pilot RCT. Stay tuned for results.

Although we seem to think this is straightforward, the ability for a physician to explain in the virtual environment is not easy. This is because you lose the cues from the patients expressions sometimes about how much they understand. Also, as an expert its easy to forget that patients may not be so familiar in the VR environment. I would use the following 2 principles in choosing VR patient education: 1. Clear advantage for the VR environment to demonstrate the complexity of surgery. 2. Patient prior usage of VR and tolerance (some people have very bad giddiness)

VR-based patient education transcends traditional methods by offering personalized, interactive 3D models of patients' own conditions, enabling a level of comprehension previously unattainable 🔬 This technology not only demystifies complex medical concepts but also has the potential to significantly improve health literacy, leading to better-informed decision-making and potentially reducing the burden on healthcare systems through improved self-management of chronic conditions🌟

Em reabilitação de pacientes a realidade virtual permite não somente a fuga do ambiente hospitalar em salas sensoriais permitindo que o processo de reabilitação seja mais eficaz ao envolvê-los em uma experiência que o motiva e incentiva a seguir e a tornar-se proativo na execução das tarefas fornecendo feedback audiovisual em tempo real baseado nas ações, monitorando o progresso e proporcionando uma reabilitação personalizada e motivadora.

VR Rehab: Leveling Up Physical Therapy 💪🎮 Virtual Reality (VR) is revolutionizing physical therapy, making rehab engaging and effective. Patients perform exercises in immersive environments that simulate real-world activities, increasing motivation and adherence. VR proves beneficial in: * Stroke recovery * Neurological disorders (Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis) * Orthopedic injuries * Pediatric rehab By gamifying exercises and providing real-time feedback, VR accelerates recovery and makes physical therapy more enjoyable and successful.

Virtual reality (VR) can augment remote consultations by enabling healthcare professionals to: - Conduct simulated, interactive sessions that replicate the intimacy and effectiveness of in-person visits - Utilize virtual environments to illustrate complex procedures and treatments, enhancing patient comprehension and engagement - Remotely assess and appreciate patients' surroundings and circumstances, facilitating more informed care decisions - Foster a sense of presence and personal connection with patients, promoting empathy and trust By integrating VR technology into remote consultations, healthcare providers can deliver more comprehensive, patient-centered care and improve overall outcomes.

A realidade virtual está se destacando como uma ferramenta eficaz no tratamento de transtornos de saúde mental, oferecendo ambientes controlados para terapia de exposição. Por meio dela, os pacientes conseguem enfrentar seus medos e gatilhos em um ambiente seguro, auxiliando no tratamento de condições como TEPT, ansiedade e fobias. Com a RV, os pacientes têm a oportunidade de vivenciar uma exposição gradual a situações desafiadoras, o que os ajuda a desenvolver mecanismos de enfrentamento com o suporte de profissionais, abrindo novas possibilidades para um tratamento eficaz da saúde mental.

Virtual reality in healthcare is poised to revolutionize medical training by offering hyper-realistic simulations of rare or high-risk procedures, allowing practitioners to hone their skills without risking patient safety🎓 Furthermore, VR has immense potential in mental health treatment, offering tailored exposure therapy for phobias and PTSD, and creating safe spaces for patients to confront and overcome psychological challenges, potentially accelerating recovery and improving long-term outcomes🧠

Virtual reality is having some exciting and innovative uses in heathcare: 1. Pain relief for women in labor, burn patients, pediatric patients 2. Patient education on diseases and procedures 3. Surgical training for residents 4. Stroke and cerebral palsy rehab Where I would love to see it being used is in SNF, hospice and bedbound patients- goving them an opportunity to experience the world they could otherwise longer access.
