Replication data for the study on Experiences of Physiotherapists considering VR for shoulder rehabilitation

DOI

IShoulder pain is common and associated with substantial morbidity. Different treatment strategies are being prescribed with equivocal results. Virtual reality (VR) is a novel technology used in healthcare and emerging research suggests that VR may be a promising alternative to current treatments. Prior to any large-scale introduction, the application of VR requires appropriate scrutiny including feasibility- and acceptability of clinicians and patients. Therefore, the aim of this study was to collect experiences of physiotherapists after using immersive VR. Methods: A qualitative interpretive design was used to explore physiotherapists’ experiences related to the use of immersive VR for people with shoulder symptoms. 17 physiotherapists were recruited from a regional shoulder network and asked to use the VR system at home for five days prior to a focus group interview. Data from the focus group interviews were analyzed using a six-phase process of thematic analysis.
