Adjunct Virtual Reality Pain Management in Acute Brain Injury

University of Maryland, Baltimore·interventional·Posted Apr 22, 2020·Updated Apr 24, 2023

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Virtual Reality Session (VR Blu), Tablet-based Session (Tablet Blu), and 1 other intervention for Traumatic Brain Injury and 3 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 60 participants across 2 sites.

Detailed Summary

Severe and refractory pain after acute injury is a known-risk factor for chronic opioid use disorder. In this study, the investigators will use Virtual Reality (VR) immersion as a non-pharmacological adjunct to treat pain associated with acute traumatic injuries, including traumatic brain injury. The investigators hypothesize that VR therapy will decrease pain and reduce opioid use in patients with acute traumatic injuries, including TBI.
