Although pain during PT/OT can be treated with opioids, there are several drawbacks to the use of analgesics alone. Side effects, the development of opioid tolerance, and the inability of the drugs to adequately control pain are some of the disadvantages. Supplemental use of nonpharmacologic techniques, along with opioid therapy, has been found to be effective in reducing pain and anxiety. In particular, distraction has been found to be useful to minimize burn pain (Miller, 1992; Patterson, 1995). Virtual reality, due to its immersive nature that includes sight, sound, and sometimes touch, may be an even more effective method of distraction than traditional methods such as video movies or interactive video games. To explain these non-pharmacologic analgesic effects, investigators propose that the illusion of going in to the virtual world draws the patient's attention. Conscious attention is required for the experience of pain (Chapman and Nakamura, 1999; Eccleston and Crombez, 1999). The interactive nature of the immersive virtual reality make VR unusually attention grabbing, leaving less attention available to process incoming pain signals (Hoffman, Patterson and Carrougher, 2000).
