NCT ID NCT05151822
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether patients can wear a virtual reality (VR) headset during awake brain surgery to help them stay calm and complete thinking and language tests. First, the VR headset was tested on people having orthopedic surgery under local anesthesia to make sure it is safe and comfortable. Now, it is being tested on 50 people having awake brain surgery to see if they can wear it for at least one hour while doing cognitive tasks.
