A number of studies have shown that virtual reality (VR) can be used to distract patients from pain and anxiety during painful medical procedures for which medication provides inadequate relief. An inexpensive, commercially available VE could have significant impact in reducing perceived pain involved in a variety of medical procedures. The Virtual Reality Medical Center (VRMC) developed an engaging virtual world that proved to be effective in reducing reported pain ratings of participants experiencing several different forms of painful stimuli. The virtual world called Icy Cool World was found to successfully distract patients from painful stimuli and reduce patients' perceived levels of pain. Phase II looks to expand on these findings and examine the effectiveness as a pain distraction technique for a variety of acute and chronic pain etiologies. The main objective of the clinical investigation will be to expand on the findings from earlier studies and obtain a more comprehensive analysis regarding the clinical versatility of VR pain distraction.
