A substantial part of all patients infected with COVID-19 remains to have physical, mental, and cognitive complaints. These so-called ‘long-COVID’ complaints can last for months after the initial infection. In collaboration with physical therapists and SyncVR Medical, the VR-loket studied the opportunities of offering these patients Virtual Reality (VR).
Patients used VR for six weeks at home or at the physical therapist’s practice. The headset included a set of games for physical rehabilitation, relaxation and mindfulness games, and games for cognitive training. Results of this ‘COVRehab study’ will be reported soon.
Scientific television show Atlas (NPO2) spent time on the use of VR for long-COVID. Curious? Watch the episode of Atlas on long COVID.
