Journal ArticleDOI

Virtual reality as an adjunctive pain control during burn wound care in adolescent patients.

TL;DR: It is argued that VR is a uniquely attention‐capturing medium capable of maximizing the amount of attention drawn away from the ‘real world’, allowing patients to tolerate painful procedures, and merits more attention as a potentially viable form of treatment for acute pain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Use of virtual reality for adjunctive treatment of adult burn pain during physical therapy: a controlled study.

TL;DR: Preliminary evidence is provided that VR can function as a strong nonpharmacologic pain reduction technique for adult burn patients during physical therapy and potentially for other painful procedures or pain populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effectiveness of virtual reality-based pain control with multiple treatments.

TL;DR: Preliminary evidence is provided that virtual reality can function as a strong nonpharmacological pain reduction technique for burn patients during physical therapy and does not diminish in analgesic effectiveness with three (and possibly more) uses.
Journal ArticleDOI

A randomized, controlled trial of immersive virtual reality analgesia, during physical therapy for pediatric burns.

TL;DR: Inter immersive virtual reality is an effective nonpharmacologic, adjunctive pain reduction technique in the pediatric burn population undergoing painful rehabilitation therapy and the magnitude of the analgesic effect is clinically meaningful and is maintained with repeated use.
