Description
Ilona Vieira Jales and twelve co-authors lay out a pilot study of virtual reality training for breast cancer survivors, in this 2025 protocol paper. Many patients report foggy thinking after chemotherapy, and the fog can block a return to work. The Cog-VR study will test whether a VR program can rebuild attention, memory, and planning skills.
Twenty-three patients with thinking complaints will take six weekly hour-long sessions. Each mixes training tasks, teaching about cognition, and ten to fifteen minutes inside VR scenes. The main question is adherence: will patients finish at least five of the six sessions? The team will also track test scores, mood, fatigue, motion sickness, and satisfaction before and after. Ethics approval and registration are in place. If the pilot holds up, a larger trial can judge real benefit.
