IV Therapy & Virtual Reality (VR) is changing healthcare by providing innovative ways to administer treatments and diagnostics, as well as changing how and where care is given. The FDA has authorized 69 medical devices that incorporate Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR).
Virtual Reality (VR) creates an immersive experience in a virtual world, often using a
headset to replace the user’s surroundings with a simulated and interactive environment.
VR technology is being applied to various treatment domains:
* Pediatric diagnostics and treatments
* Pain management
* Mental health
* Neurological disorders
* Surgery planning
* Telemedicine and virtual care
* Post-operative and rehabilitation therapies
* Increases access to healthcare, especially when in-person access is difficult.
* Improves healthcare professionals; ability to prepare for treatments.
* Fulfills unmet medical needs and alleviates preoperative anxiety.
* Allows for self-directed care.
* VR healthcare programs allow users to experience human systems like the circulatory,
endocrine, and respiratory systems from the inside.
* VR can simulate real-life situations to improve physical functions for patients who have
experienced a physical disability associated with a stroke or other medical condition.
* Virtual Reality immerse patients to the extend that they forget the obstacles they perceive in reality.
* Reduced Anxiety and Discomfort: VR can significantly reduce anxiety and the
perception of pain during IV treatments.
* Enhanced Relaxation: Immersive environments promote relaxation, making the
therapy session more pleasan.
* Distraction Therapy: Engaging content diverts attention from the medical procedure.
* Improved Patient Experience: Combines medical treatment with a positive and
enjoyable experience.
While VR offers numerous benefits, there are potential risks to consider:
* Cybersickness
* Head and neck strain
* Dizziness and fatigue
It is crucial to address these risks to ensure patient safety and comfort.
By combining VR with IV therapy, healthcare providers can offer a more comfortable,
engaging, and effective treatment experience, transforming routine medical procedures
into opportunities for relaxation and enjoyment.
