AppliedVR and Kernel Flow Announce Clinical Results Evaluating How Brain Changes During Virtual Reality Treatment of Chronic Pain

Retrieved on: 
Thursday, February 8, 2024

While participants in the RelieVRx and sham groups both experienced varying levels of pain relief after completing the eight-week treatment, researchers determined that participants in the RelieVRx group experienced enhanced brain activation coherence -- change that previously has been related to reduced pain -- from pre-to-post treatment. Those patients receiving the VR sham control demonstrated a decline in brain coherence. Additionally, those receiving treatment from the RelieVRx device achieved a slower breathing rate as compared to the sham VR group. These results suggest that active RelieVRx treatment can create physiological changes in the body and have an impact on coherent global brain activity.

Key Points: 
  • The research used AppliedVR's RelieVRx® medical device, an eight-week, skills-based program that helps chronic low back pain (CLBP) patients learn self-management skills, combined with Kernel Flow and FlowVR—a compact, affordable, TD-fNIRS brain measurement headset customized for use in VR—to measure brain hemodynamic changes associated with pain relief.
  • These results suggest that active RelieVRx treatment can create physiological changes in the body and have an impact on coherent global brain activity.
  • AppliedVR and Kernel plan to conduct clinical studies to uncover how RelieVRx as an intervention could drive certain physiological changes in breathing and brain patterns that have been linked to pain relief.
  • "This exciting research shows how our Kernel Flow technology can measure the brain and help quantify notoriously difficult to measure conditions," said Kernel CEO Ryan Field.
