Virtual reality headsets tested to keep older brains sharp after surgery
NCT ID NCT06232317
Summary
This study tested whether using a virtual reality (VR) headset to do brain exercises is safe and acceptable for patients aged 60 and older after abdominal surgery. The goal is to see if these VR exercises, which focus on memory and attention, could help prevent post-surgery confusion and delirium. Researchers compared the VR group to patients receiving standard care to check for safety and gather information for a larger future study.
