Summary

Using a randomized controlled design, the investigators goal is to estimate the effect of VR on postoperative analgesia and opioid consumption.

Detailed description

Specifically, the investigators propose to test the primary hypothesis that the use of AppliedVR software in Pico G2 4K headsets decreases acute postoperative pain scores (with a 1 point difference considered clinically important) compared to sham treatment on a 0-10 scale 15 minutes after each use in the first 48 hours after surgery or hospital discharge, whichever comes first.
