Use of a Spatial Computing Device and Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality for Exposure Therapy for Needle and Blood-Injection-Injury Phobia

Обзор

This case series study seeks to evaluate the use of a Spatial Computing Device and Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) as an exposure therapy modality for children and adolescents with needle and blood-injection-injury phobia. This study will take place at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital (LPCH) and Stanford Hospital (Stanford University, Palo Alto, CA).

Подробное описание

Needle phobia and Blood-Injection-Injury phobia are anxieties that are observed in children, adolescents, and adults undergoing medical/surgical procedures and the use of needles. These phobias can lead to an impediment of care for children or adolescents and may impact their ability to participate in care and/or receive essential treatments. This can lead to significant delays in treatment of individuals and medical trauma for patients who can only receive treatments/procedures using needles after undergoing sedation. Although treatment protocols exist for treating needle and blood-injection-injury phobia in adults, the literature regarding treatment in children and adolescents is limited. Additionally, the use of medications for management of needle phobia can lead to increased medical complications and may not resolve the underlying cause of needle phobia. Recent technological developments have led to the use of virtual reality exposure therapy (XRET) for treating needle and blood-injection-injury phobia, however few studies have been performed in children, and the literature regarding anxiety and clinical outcomes using this treatment modality is lacking in this population. Further, newly developed spatial computing and XR (Mixed Reality) devices have led to advancements in immersion and personalization of images/videos, and as such may lead to increased engagement and clinical efficacy for patients participating in XRET.

The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of combining cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and extended reality exposure therapy (XRET) for treating needle and blood-injection-injury (BII) phobia in children and adolescents. The intervention requires direct observation of human participants' psychological and physiological responses to exposures. These measurements, including anxiety levels and sympathetic/parasympathetic activity, can only be obtained from human subjects to assess treatment efficacy.

Вмешательства

  • Поведенческое Mixed reality (XR) Exposure Therapy
    Participants will engage in a maximum 8-session intervention combining Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Extended Reality Therapy (XRET) to address needle phobia and blood-injection-injury (BII) phobia. The intervention begins with an initial intake session where the APA-SMS screener results are reviewed. Participants will then undergo VR exposure, with mixed exposure to sham needles in the latter exposure session. Anxiety levels will be assessed using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS-A) during a
