Hospital & Health Care

Wide Awake VR brings immersive multimedia into the patient experience for minor surgeries and uncomfortable medical procedures. As our population lives longer, more healthcare procedures are being conducted on elderly and complex patients who are not well-suited for sedation with general anesthesia. Our healthcare system is also suffering form an epidemic of painkillers and anti-anxiety medications. WAVR provides a solution to mitigate against both these problem areas. By replacing sedation and anxiety with virtual reality and multimedia, we have proven that patients immersed in media content have better procedural outcomes and far greater satisfaction scores. By coordinating hardware, software, custom content, and proprietary workflows, the patent pending WAVR platform is the first of its kind to define patient safety protocols and allow for a fully interactive Wide Awake surgical experience. - No ridiculous co-pays or deductibles- No fasting the night before- No need to get a ride to the hospital- No issues with medication conflicts- No consults with other specialists- No worrying about infections or hospitalizationsWAVR surgeries last 10 to 20 minutes on average. All the pre and post-instructions are delivered electronically. Patients spend less than an hour of their day in the office or surgical center, and their satisfaction is unprecedented. In a recent clinical trial, 80% of the patients actually said they enjoyed their surgery.
