Virtual Reality Implantation in Paediatric Rehabilitation (IMPLANT-VR4 CHILD)

Sponsor: Fondation Ildys

Summary

Virtual Reality Implementation in Paediatric Rehabilitation (IMPLANT-VR 4 CHILD) Virtual Reality (VR) and Active Video Games (AVG) are promising devices for children in need of rehabilitation. VR and AVG have been widely studied in research, with promising results in a number of areas, including motor function, cognitive function, pain management and attention disorders. However, despite these promising results and the enthusiasm they generate in research, VR and AVG are rarely used in clinical practice, particularly in the paediatric services of Ty Yann and Perharidy of the ILDYS Foundation. There is a strong demand from professionals for these tools to be better integrate these devices into their clinical practice. The project is to conduct an action research with rehabilitation professionals, health managers and children in need of rehabilitation in order to facilitate the implementation of VR and AVG in the paediatric rehabilitation services of Ty Yann and Perharidy. Firstly, the facilitators and barriers present in these services will be identified. Then, specific strategies to facilitate the implementation of VR will be used. Finally, the impact of these strategies on the use of VR will be evaluated.
