The term virtual reality is derived from the two opposite words "virtual" and "real". Virtual reality applications offer users the opportunity to enter the artificial environment created and experience various experiences there. It also offers cost-effective, accessible, flexible and comprehensive interventions for patients who have difficulty getting an appointment due to distance, transportation difficulties or disability. It is seen that virtual reality applications are increasingly used in the defense and aerospace industries, education and training, painting, entertainment and game worlds, health care and treatment. It is seen that virtual reality applications are increasingly used in the defense and aerospace industries, education and training, painting, entertainment and game worlds, health care and treatment. Considering the increasing use of virtual reality in health-related fields, it can be said that virtual reality interventions have the potential to be powerful tools in patient management. Virtual reality applications focusing on caring for an individual rather than treating a disease and addressing an organizational model understanding in which the individual is at the center; It has been reported to have positive effects in many areas such as affecting the management of the disease, including the patient as a whole and increasing patient compliance. In addition to the natural interaction in virtual reality facilitating the participation of individuals in the determined tasks, virtual reality applications provide real-time feedback that can be adapted to the needs and abilities of the users. The purpose of this review is to examine virtual reality applications used in the field of healthcare and their effects on the care process.

Geçmişten Geleceğe: Sağlıkta Sanal Gerçeklik ve Uygulama Alanları

Öz

Sanal gerçeklik terimi birbirine zıt iki kelime olan “sanal” ve “gerçek” kelimesinden türemiştir. Sanal gerçeklik uygulamaları kullanıcılara oluşturulan yapay ortama girebilme ve orada çeşitli deneyimler yaşama imkanı sunar. Ayrıca mesafe, ulaşım zorluğu veya engellilik nedeniyle randevu almakta güçlük çeken hastalar için uygun maliyetli, erişilebilir, esnek ve kapsamlı müdahaleler sunmaktadır. Sanal gerçeklik uygulamalarının, savunma ve havacılık endüstrilerinde, eğitim ve öğretim alanlarında, resim, eğlence ve oyun dünyasında, sağlık bakımı ve tedavisinde artarak kullanıldığı görülmektedir. Sanal gerçekliğin sağlıkla ilgili alanlarda artan kullanımı göz önüne alındığında, sanal gerçeklik müdahalelerinin hasta yönetiminde güçlü araçlar olma potansiyeli olduğu söylenebilir. Bir hastalığı tedavi etmekten ziyade bireye bakım vermeye odaklanan, merkezinde bireyin yer aldığı örgütsel bir model anlayışını ele alan sanal gerçeklik uygulamalarının; hastalığın yönetimini etkileme, hastanın bir bütün olarak ele alınmasıyla bakıma dahil edilmesi ve hasta uyumunu arttırma gibi birçok alanda olumlu etkilerinin olduğu bildirilmiştir. Sanal gerçeklikteki doğal etkileşim, bireylerin belirlenen görevlere katılımını kolaylaştırmasının yanı sıra sanal gerçeklik uygulamaları kullanıcıların ihtiyaçlarına ve yeteneklerine uyarlanabilecek gerçek zamanlı geri bildirimler sunmaktadır. Bu derlemenin amacı, sağlık alanında kullanılan sanal gerçeklik uygulamaları ve bakım sürecine olan etkilerini incelemektir.
