If the pain can be graded, then childbirth will be one of the highest levels of pain humans can afford. However, doctors are currently trying to give his patients a VR helmet during childbirth to appease the patient and alleviate the pain of childbirth.

According to Dr. Ralph Anderson of the Orange Regional Medical Center in Middleton, New York, the appetite for maternal discomfort during childbirth is a problem that American obstetricians and gynaecologists have been trying to improve. Anderson has been trying to minimize the pain of the mother. Recently, VR has aroused his interest.

“I want to make them more comfortable during childbirth,” Anderson said of his patient. “At first I used this device mainly with my colleagues in the office, but I always hope to be in the hospital. Use this device."

The device that Anderson mentioned is Samsung's Gear VR, a wireless VR helmet that is powered by a smartphone and does not need to be connected to a computer or game console. Anderson said that when one of his patients decided to give up epidural anesthesia and prepare for natural delivery, he finally had the opportunity to use the Gear VR helmet during the delivery.

"The woman doesn't want to do anesthesia, but when she first gave birth, she changed her mind to ask for anesthesia. This kind of thing happened from time to time." Anderson explained, "Before we call an anesthesiologist, I ask her if she wants to try." The other way, and the couple explained what VR was. At first she was a little hesitant, but in the end she agreed to try it."

Anderson said he immediately showed the mother a guided meditation VR experience developed by AppliedVR. According to Applied VR Chairman Josh Sackman, this experience combines soft sound, music and visual real-time guidance that guides patients into the meditation phase during surgery.

AppliedVR took Anderson's patient out of the operating room and took her to the scenery of Big Sur, California. The scouring of the waves, the soft music, and effective birthing techniques led the mother to forget the pain. According to Anderson, the mother wore a “about two hours” of VR and the delivery process went smoothly and successfully.

“One of the most important factors when it comes to childbirth is concentration. We try our best to let mothers concentrate on breathing and exerting strength. But in the traditional delivery room, every mother puts attention. In the pain.” Anderson said, “With VR, we are able to distract the mother's attention and guide her through childbirth. Finally, it is a successful operation for the patient or the doctor. ”

Anderson believes that doctors should be innovators and early adopters, and he believes that VR technology has tremendous opportunities for growth in the medical field. When asked if he would use VR for more patients, Anderson's answer was quite positive.

“I think VR is absolutely beneficial for doctors,” Anderson said. “My goal is to introduce VR technology to pregnant women during the maternity planning phase of the pregnant woman. I hope more and more people can see the benefits of VR. Although any device in the medical field is subject to gradual review and guidance by regulatory authorities, I believe that VR's development in the medical field is just around the corner."

According to Sackman, "In the course of this research, we found that when it comes to health care, our users are people who are about to undergo surgery or are about to give birth. At this time, they are really vulnerable, so we cooperate with doctors and experts. To make sure this app helps patients through difficult times becomes very important."
