Summary
This study tested whether a 5-minute calming virtual reality (VR) experience could reduce blood pressure and anxiety in adults with suspected white coat hypertension (high blood pressure only in the doctor's office). 79 participants had their blood pressure and anxiety measured before and after the VR session. The goal was to see if VR could make clinic visits less stressful and provide more accurate blood pressure readings.
