Quick Summary

Virtual reality (VR) therapy offers potential benefits for reducing symptom burden in palliative care patients. This case series evaluates the feasibility and acceptability of using VR therapy in this population, addressing a gap in existing research on its application in palliative settings.

Abstract

Virtual reality (VR) opens a variety of therapeutic options to improve symptom burden in patients with advanced disease. Until to date, only few studies have evaluated the use of VR therapy in the context of palliative care.

This case series aims to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of VR therapy in a population of palliative care patients.
