Virtual reality to help manage symptoms after stem cell transplant
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests whether using virtual reality (VR) can help reduce symptoms like pain or anxiety after a stem cell transplant. You wear a VR headset to relax or be distracted during your hospital stay.
