Summary

This study tests whether wearing a virtual reality headset (Apple Vision Pro) during colonoscopy and other scope procedures can reduce physical strain on doctors. About 140 procedures will be monitored using a standard ergonomic scoring system. The goal is to see if the headset improves posture and lowers the risk of work-related muscle and joint injuries.
