PRESSURE INJURY PREVENTION AND TREATMENT USING REDIRECTION IN A VIRTUAL REALITY, AUGMENTED REALITY, OR MIXED REALITY ENVIRONMENT

摘要

An apparatus for prevention and/or treatment of pressure injuries can include a head mounted display (HMD) with a processor and a display. The HMD can be configured to be worn by a user. The processor can be configured to present a virtual, augmented, or mixed reality environment to the user on the display. The environment can include visual content with a position in the environment configured to move over a time period to cause the user to shift a body weight of the user according to a change in the position of the visual content in order to facilitate prevention and/or treatment of pressure injuries of the user. In summary a HMD based learning and assistance system is disclosed for motivating a patient of moving himself to avoid decubitus/ulcer.
