The INOVATE Pain SIG hopes to promote the creation, rigorous yet efficient evaluation, and dissemination of innovative VR-based interventions to reduce pain and improve quality of life for children.
INOVATE-Pain (Interdisciplinary Network on Virtual and Augmented Technologies for Pain management)
What we hope to achieve:
-
Continue our efforts to establish a gold standard set of outcomes to be measured in pediatric pain VR research and specific recommended measurement tools.
-
Offer opportunities for education and connections in the field.
-
Work together to advance current projects and launch new interventions in a rigorous, appropriately resourced environment.
