“… The majority of the research efforts have focused on clinic-based applications running on PC-based platforms [18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30], with only a limited number of studies paying attention to the need for mobile pain assessment. In fact, it is surprising that very few (if any) have been 6 built and ported to mobile platforms.…”

Abstract-Earlier studies in the field of pain research suggest that little efficient intervention currently exists in response to the exponential increase in the prevalence of pain. In this paper, we present an Android application (PainDroid) with multimodal functionality that could be enhanced with Virtual Reality (VR) technology, which has been designed for the purpose of improving the assessment of this notoriously difficult medical concern. PainDroid has been evaluated for its usability and acceptability with a pilot group of potential users and clinicians, with initial results suggesting that it can be an effective and usable tool for improving the assessment of pain.Participant experiences indicated that the application was easy to use and the potential of the application was similarly appreciated by the clinicians involved in the evaluation. Our findings may be of considerable interest to healthcare providers, policy makers, and other parties that might be actively involved in the area of pain and VR research.

“…Hoffman et al [6], used VR as an adjunct to analgesics for burn pain and demonstrated that this helped in reducing pain and distress. Similarly, in the work of Lamont, Chin and Kogan [10], VR was used as a means of managing phantom limb pain in upper extremity amputees. Their findings showed that VR significantly contributes in the reduction of phantom limb pain.…”

The use of commercial game devices for the purpose of developing novel interactive solutions in order to support the provision of care has attracted considerable interest over the last years. However, the development of such solutions to use with the clinical assessment of the notoriously challenging experience of pain has fallen behind in recent years. In this paper, we present a proposed conceptual design and one example tool for pain assessment using Microsoft Kinect as the interaction method. Past research demonstrated the usefulness of Virtual Reality, and especially Kinect, in the management and reduction of. It is anticipated that our tool will provide a more natural user experience that enables pain sufferers to also assess their pain experience either in a clinical setting or in the comfort of a home environment.
