Provider Perceptions Of Virtual Reality As A Therapeutic Tool, Margaret Eberts, Christine Vincent, Tejal U. Naik, Md, Virginia O'Hayer
Phase 1
Introduction: Virtual reality (VR) shows significant potential as a healthcare tool, especially in the management of anxiety disorders and pain. However, despite recent studies demonstrating the effectiveness of VR, there continues to be limited use among providers. A lack of resources and understanding of the feasibility of clinical VR use may present a significant barrier for VR implementation. Through studying the perceptions of providers using VR clinically, this study aims to understand the achievability of VR as a standardized therapy.
Methods: Researchers distributed an online, self-administered questionnaire to healthcare providers identified on VR application websites. The questionnaire consisted of five …

Phase 1
Introduction: Virtual reality (VR) can be an effective healthcare tool, particularly applied to anxiety and pain management. Despite significant interest in VR, lack of resources and knowledge regarding feasibility are barriers to implementation. This study aims to understand the current clinical usage of VR and the achievability of VR as a standardized therapy, by assessing VR healthcare providers.
Methods: An online, self-administered questionnaire with five sections—respondent demographics, VR value, onboarding, billing, and clinical use—was distributed. Providers, identified on VR application websites, were contacted via email. Inclusion criteria was providers in the United States using VR actively or in the past …
Patient Tolerance To Virtual Reality-Based Vestibular Rehabilitation: A Scoping Review, Michael Knapp, Tejal Naik
Patient Tolerance To Virtual Reality-Based Vestibular Rehabilitation: A Scoping Review, Michael Knapp, Tejal Naik
Phase 1
Introduction: Virtual reality-based therapy (VRBT) using head-mounted devices (HMDs) is being explored as a novel treatment modality for rehabilitation of vestibular disorders. We hypothesize there may exist unique risks and side effects to VRBT using HMDs in the vestibular patient population which no previous studies have directly explored. This scoping review compiles all currently published data concerning vestibular patient tolerance to this treatment modality and provides preliminary interpretation of overall risks.
Methods: An exhaustive list of search terms covering virtual reality, HMDs, vestibular disorders, side effects, and adverse events were submitted to six different databases. Returned papers were uploaded to …
