研究概览
简要总结
This study is designed to test if the use of virtual reality (VR) can improve chronic pain related to CRPS. One way is to use virtual reality. Virtual reality involves looking into a set of goggles and interacting with a computer-simulated world. The use of VR has been shown to be an effective treatment for other pain conditions (Hoffman et al., 2019) and is inexpensive and noninvasive.
详细描述
Participants will "go into" simple fun pain distracting virtual reality worlds (no previous video game experience needed) that encourages physical movement of the injured limb (e.g., their injured hand). They will also learn some simple daily 10 minute stress reduction, mood lifting mindfulness skills in VR and will receive audio instructions to focus their attention on the sights and sounds, and controlled breathing (Flores et al., 2019).

盲法说明
The participants will not be told there is more than one treatment group, but during the consenting process each participant will be fully informed about the treatment they will personally receive. The statistician will not be told which group received more treatments.

结局指标
主要结局
The Patient Global Impression of Change scale (PGIC), regarding CRPS pain.
时间窗: Change from baseline to 1 year post-treatment
This self-report measure. reflects a patient's belief about the efficacy of treatment. Compared with before receiving VR therapy, how would you describe your pain related to CRPS now overall? 7 point scale from - 3 to + 3 (-3 = very much worst, +3 = very much better). This is a 7 point scale depicting a patient's rating of overall improvement. Patients rate their change in CRPS pain as "very much improved," "much improved," "minimally improved," "no change," "minimally worse," "much worse," or "very much worse."
The Patient Global Impression of Change scale (PGIC), regarding functionality/physical abilities.
时间窗: Change from baseline to one year post-treatment
This self-report measure reflects a patient's belief about the efficacy of treatment. Compared with before receiving VR therapy, how would you describe your physical abilities now overall? 7 point scale from - 3 to + 3 (-3 = very much worst, +3 = very much better). This is a 7 point scale depicting a patient's rating of overall improvement. Patients rate their change in physical abilities as "very much improved," "much improved," "minimally improved," "no change," "minimally worse," "much worse," or "very much worse."
