Video game therapy: can VR get sick kids moving?

NCT ID NCT05876156

Summary

This study is testing if using virtual reality (VR) headsets during physical therapy makes exercise more enjoyable and effective for children and young adults (ages 10-25) who are in the hospital for cancer treatment. Researchers will compare VR-assisted therapy to traditional therapy to see if it helps patients be more active and less bored. This is a small pilot study to see if the approach works well enough to test in larger future studies.
