The ‘5 ways’ of using VR in healthcare

  1. Procedural distraction
  2. Novel therapeutic modality
    An evidence-base is building in chronic pain management, and watch this space for Keith’s ‘PREVENT ITU DELIRIUM‘ research.
  3. Novel diagnostic modality
    A great example is Vitae VR – dementia screening in the form of a virtual trip to the supermarket.
  4. Education and training
    The Medical Realities Platform, founded by Shafi Ahmed (@ShafiAhmed5), is providing 360° video VR training to surgeons all over the world.
  5. Breaking down barriers and delivering new perspectives
    Nick Peres (@MoorOfALife), creator of patientvr.co.uk, is pioneering the use of VR to deliver immersive patient perspective in healthcare education.

Here is a Curistica podcast where Keith describes the ‘5 ways’ in detail, and another where he interviews Nick Peres.
