AMC launches pilot project with cinema film during operation – Eindhoven Dagblad

Amsterdam surgery are at your knee while quietly enjoying a film. That can present at the Academic Medical Center in Amsterdam. It is a test to see if patients more relaxed get through the surgery.

Today, the first operation is performed while a young woman by a video glasses with headphones to nature film The New Wilderness watched. ,, The patient found it quite comfortable. If you look through the glasses, it’s just like sitting in a movie theater, ” said Professor Marlies drives, which accompanies the study.

Currently only get healthy patients considered that a knee- or undergo ankle surgery in which they are anesthetized locally. Often patients “extremely tense”, see Drives. ,, The sounds in the operating room often find people not fine. If we can make it more comfortable with video glasses, it is worth investigating. “

If it turns out to work, patients could theoretically watch any movie they want. ,, But not any horror movie, that’s not good for blood pressure, ” laughs Drives.

There is also thought to patients who can not copy the movie, because the operation is faster than New Wilderness. They receive a voucher Pathé home so they can continue watching the film in their own homes.
