For the patient:
- Reduces feeling cramped.
- Increase involvement and motivation regarding treatment.
- The patient has a goal to achieve, collecting stones is perceived as a challenge.
- It is a software designed for people of all ages.
- The patient will know at all times what needs to be done, the patient does not need to interact with the clinician.
- Music, landscape and animals help the person to be more relaxed during the intervention and thus it is possible for professionals to work in a more effective and faster way.
- Glasses allow either complete isolation of the patients, or may let them see what is going on around them.
For the professional:
- The virtual walkthrough lasts around 3 hours and can be interrupted and restarted at any time, even in separate clinical sessions.
- If patients use Isla Calma it is not necessary that professionals invest time in attending patients’ fear to treatment or interventions.
- Materials are easy to wear and easy to use.
- Materials are light and easy portable from one to another consultation room.
- The controller allows the person “walking without moving”, in a way that does not prevent the correct development of the intervention.
- 3D glasses are very comfortable and small, so the patient is familiarized with them and they do not interfere with the treatment.
