Summary

This study tests whether virtual reality (VR) can help children and young adults with cancer be more physically active while in the hospital. 40 participants aged 10-25 will try both VR-assisted physical therapy and traditional physical therapy to see which one gets them moving more. The goal is to find better ways to keep young cancer patients active during their hospital stay.
