Abstract
A method and system four delirium therapy is provided. The method comprises selecting immersive content for displaying to a patient who is experiencing delirium, comprising selecting said immersive content from a database based on a time of day attribute associated with the immersive content; and administering the selected immersive content to the patient, by displaying said content to the patient on a display, and simultaneously playing any audio component of said content to the patient.
Claims16
A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- selecting immersive content, from a database, for displaying to a patient who is experiencing delirium based on a time of day attribute associated with the immersive content;
- administering the selected immersive content to the patient based on a dose, by displaying said immersive content to the patient on a virtual reality device, and simultaneously playing an audio component of said immersive content to the patient;
- administering a delirium test to the patient via the virtual reality device periodically, and analyzing results of the delirium test to quantify a level of delirium experienced by the patient in terms of a delirium score;
- and
- determining the dose for the patient based on said delirium level, wherein the dose is based on a predefined time for which the immersive content is to be shown to the patient.
A system, comprising:
- a server and database, wherein the server is configured to:
- select immersive content, from the database, for displaying to a patient who is experiencing delirium based on a time of day attribute associated with the immersive content;
- administer the selected immersive content to the patient based on a dose, by displaying said immersive content to the patient on a virtual reality device, and simultaneously playing an audio component of said content to the patient;
- administer a delirium test to the patient via the virtual reality device periodically, and analyze results of the delirium test to quantify a level of delirium experienced by the patient in terms of a delirium score;
- and
- determine the dose for the patient based on said delirium level, wherein said dose is a defined time for which the immersive content is to be shown to the patient.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium, having stored thereon, a set of computer-executable instructions that cause a computer to perform steps comprising:
- selecting immersive content, from a database, for displaying to a patient who is experiencing delirium based on a time of day attribute associated with the immersive content;
- administering the selected immersive content to the patient based on a dose, by displaying said immersive content to the patient on a virtual reality device, and simultaneously playing an audio component of said immersive content to the patient;
- administering a delirium test to the patient via the virtual reality device periodically, and analyzing results of the delirium test to quantify a level of delirium experienced by the patient in terms of a delirium score;
- and
- determining the dose for the patient based on said delirium level, wherein the dose is a predefined time for which the immersive content is to be shown to the patient.
