Recent advances in virtual reality (VR) technology have made it possible to use VR healthcare settings improve patient care and rehabilitation, with promising results various clinical applications. This study aims review the existing literature exploring applications potential benefits of for individuals chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A search six databases, including PubMed, Medline, ScienceDirect, Web Science, Ebsco, ProQuest, was conducted identify different studies COPD patients. The search, updated November 2024, yielded 2835 results, from which 18 diverse on this topic were included. publications included qualitative analysis published 2019-2024. These 6 systematic reviews meta-analyses, 4 mixed-methods studies, 3 observational conference papers, 2 trials. Among these, 11 investigated efficacy VR-assisted training enhancing lung function, exercise endurance, physical activity levels Additionally, 7 explored impact depression, anxiety, stress patients COPD. Lastly, 8 assessed acceptability, usability, or feasibility In conclusion, revealed that interventions led positive outcomes patients, improving physiotherapeutic parameters, quality life, psychological well-being. Patients found programs acceptable easy use, increasing motivation adherence treatment. Further research is needed assess VR's long-term effectiveness reducing exacerbation hospitalization rates compliant

Virtual reality (VR) technology has been useful in enhancing cancer-supportive care by alleviating pain, anxiety and emotional distress. However, its integration into oncology faces multiple barriers, including limited funding, insufficient clinician training, accessibility challenges, absence of standard guidelines reimbursement policies. This policy brief highlighted options needed for VR interventions care. was developed upon a previous systematic review that examined the role To translate these findings actionable recommendations, we conducted secondary analysis policy-related opportunities challenges. The extracted evidence synthesized to propose strategic facilitate adoption oncology. A total five key were identified: (1) increasing funding research development, (2) training programs healthcare professionals, (3) expanding patient access through financial support mechanisms, (4) establishing clinical (5) developing These recommendations aim bridge gap between technological advancements their practical implementation cancer Integrating requires coordinated effort among policymakers, institutions developers. By implementing evidence-based strategies, stakeholders can enhance access, improve outcomes ensure sustainable
