VR TMD EEG Trial Summary

This trial will compare the effects of immersive virtual reality to a placebo treatment for chronic pain. The goal is to find new non-medication options for managing pain with low risk.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for individuals experiencing chronic pain, specifically in the jaw joint (TMJ Dysfunction). Participants should be interested in trying non-drug treatments. Details on specific inclusion and exclusion criteria are not provided.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study is testing an immersive virtual reality system called RelieVRx against a fake VR treatment (Sham-VR) and no VR at all to understand how they affect chronic pain relief.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves virtual reality, potential side effects may include dizziness, nausea, eye strain or headaches. However, these are generally low-risk compared to medication side effects.
