Virtual reality offers new hope for easing cancer pain

NCT ID NCT07318519

Summary

This study is developing and testing a new virtual reality (VR) device designed to help people manage chronic cancer pain. The VR experience uses principles from cognitive behavioral therapy to distract from pain and lower pain sensations. Researchers will compare the VR device to a standard tablet video to see if it's practical, safe, and helpful for patients.
