Bliss

VR mindfulness application helping pre-operative patients manage anxiety.

Challenge

Patients undergoing same-day surgery were facing very high anxiety levels which impacted their response to anesthesia as well as slowing down their recovery.

Innovation

Bliss is a VR-based mindfulness tool specifically designed to manage pre-operative anxiety effectively. Utilizing calming environments and guided relaxation techniques, Bliss significantly reduces patient anxiety, shown to improve responses to anesthesia and accelerate recovery. In a pilot with 30 patients, Bliss has demonstrated substantial improvements in pre-operative anxiety management and surgical outcomes.
