虚拟现实技术在儿童疼痛管理中的应用进展

近年来虚拟现实技术被引入医疗领域,成为疼痛管理的新形式,但目前在我国儿童疼痛管理中的应用较少。本研究从虚拟现实技术的概述、设备种类与使用方式、干预效果3个部分进行综述,以期为我国虚拟现实技术在儿童疼痛管理中的临床实践提供参考。     

The effects of different environments on older adults’ ability to successfully cross a closing gap in virtual reality

BackgroundTo navigate through dynamically changing environments and to avoid collisions with stationary and moving obstacles, older adults tend to over rely on their visual system because it is a more reliable source of information. Aging affects both visuomotor integration and visual perception, often resulting in the inability to produce appropriate adaptive locomotor actions in a timely manner.Research questionDoes peripheral visual information in the environment affected older adults’ ability to complete a gap-crossing task with a set of closing doors at different rates (0.6–1.2 m/s)?MethodsFifteen older adults (65–74 years) completed the study inside a virtual environment with three different levels of peripheral visual information: 1) empty; 2) stationary avatars; and 3) moving avatars. Kinematic data was collected using an Optotrak camera system to track the older adults’ body movements during the task.ResultsThe results demonstrated that regardless of the environment or closing door speed, older adults maintained consistent approach speeds. However, older adults collided with the fastest moving doors a significant number of times at the fastest door closing rates for the empty and moving avatar conditions.SignificanceAlthough it appears that older adults are able to attend on a central task (i.e., passing through closing doors) and maintain constant behaviours regardless of the visual information from peripheral environment, richness of the peripheral environment provides accurate feedback about self-motion affects success rates.     

多模影像技术在解剖性肝切除手术导航中应用价值研究

目的 研究三维可视化（3DV）、吲哚菁绿荧光融合影像（FIGFI）、虚拟现实（VR）技术等多模影像技术在解剖性肝切除手术导航的应用价值。方法 选择2016年1月至2018年6月间南方医科大学珠江医院肝胆外科64例肝脏肿瘤病人临床资料。采用MI-3DVS对薄层CT图像数据进行个体化的肝脏、肝内脉管和肿瘤三维重建，并将三维重建模型导入VR开发引擎中转化为VR模型，指导术前规划和决策；术中使用荧光成像仪对肝脏、肿瘤进行侦测，并联合3DV和VR技术导航肝切除手术。结果 MI-3DVS三维重建的64例病人肝脏、肿瘤及肝内脉管等结构清晰；通过头戴式显示器及安装了捕捉手和手指运动的传感器的操纵手柄融入一个 3D-VR环境，更立体直观地显示前期3DV模型的沉浸感、空间感和立体感；FIGFI可进行肿瘤边界界定、肝切缘的界定、微小肝癌和肝切缘残留病灶的侦测。64例病人中，肝左外叶切除4例，肝左叶切除16例，肝右前叶切除5例，肝右后叶切除5例，肝右叶切除17例，肝中叶切除术5例，肝段切除11例（5段3例、6段6例、7段1例、8段1例），尾状叶切除1例。实际手术过程与术前手术规划一致。术后均未出现腹腔出血、胆漏、肝功能衰竭等严重并发症，围手术期无死亡病例。结论 多模影像技术在术前精确影像评估和术中导航解剖性、功能性、根治性肝切除手术具有重要应用价值。     

Effectiveness of virtual reality in the treatment of hand function in children with cerebral palsy: A systematic review

Study DesignSystematic review.IntroductionChildren with cerebral palsy (CP) may have limited use of their hands for functional activities and for fine motor skills. Virtual reality (VR) is a relatively new and innovative approach to facilitate hand function in children with CP.Purpose of the StudyThe primary purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of VR as an intervention to improve hand function in children with CP compared to either conventional physiotherapy or other therapeutic interventions. The secondary purpose was to classify the outcomes evaluated according to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) dimensions.MethodsA International prospective register of systematic reviews (PROSPERO)-registered literature search was carried out in August 2015 in MEDLINE, CINAHL, ERIC, HealthSTAR, AMED, BNI, Embase, PsycINFO, PEDro, Cochrane Central Register, DARE, OTSeeker, REHABDATA, HaPI, CIRRIE, and Scopus. PRISMA guidelines were followed. Only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were included, and their methodological qualities were examined using the Cochrane collaboration's risk of bias (RoB) tool. A narrative synthesis was performed.ResultsThe 6 RCTs published on this topic provide conflicting results. Four studies reported improved hand function (2 low RoB, 1 high RoB, and 1 unclear RoB), whereas 2 studies reported no improvement. All of the RCTs reported the activity element of ICF, but no study explicitly described the effect of VR intervention based on the ICF model.ConclusionThe role of VR ti imrpove hand fucntion in children with CP is unclear due to limited evidence; use as an adjunct has some support.
