School of Health, Wellbeing and Social Care, Faculty of Wellbeing, Education and Language Studies, The Open University, Milton Keynes, UK.
Article Synopsis
- Extended reality (XR) interventions, particularly virtual reality (VR), may reduce anxiety for patients undergoing cardiac surgeries but have not shown significant effects on pain levels.
- A systematic review of 22 studies highlighted that while VR significantly decreased pre- and peri-procedural anxiety, many of the studies were at high risk for bias.
- Additional potential benefits of VR include enhancing pre-procedural knowledge and improving physical and emotional well-being, although the evidence for these effects is inconsistent.

Anasthesiol Intensivmed Notfallmed Schmerzther
November 2024
In Germany, blast and gunshot injuries are uncommon but complex injury entities. Due to the global political situation, terrorist attacks, accidents, or acts of violence, these injuries are potentially part of the reality of care for every anaesthetist, surgeon, and emergency physician.
