Virtual reality goggles boost Self-Care after Weight-Loss surgery

This study tested whether using virtual reality glasses to teach patients about self-care after bariatric surgery improves their ability to manage their health. Sixty adults who had weight-loss surgery were split into two groups: one group received standard care, while the other watched a 15-20 minute educational video using VR glasses before leaving the hospital. Researchers measured self-care skills and body mass index over three months to see if the VR approach made a difference.
