Patient Engagement February 28, 2018
A VR tool at Boston Children’s Hospital will create an immersive and accessible patient education experience for patients and families.
A new virtual reality tool at Boston Children’s Hospital aims to take patient education into the future by delivering children and their parents an individualized and immersive patient experience.
In partnership with patient education technology company Klick Health, Boston Children’s has created HealthVoyager, a VR tool that gives patients a 3D tour of a gastrointestinal test such as a colonoscopy or endoscopy. This allows patients to view their exact results and receive a hands-on experience to understand their current medical conditions.
Traditionally, patients and families receive paper patient education tools that are not necessarily customized to the patient’s test outcomes.
