Evidence classification method: | This guide classifies the evidence quality and recommendation strength according to the international GRADE standard, in which the evidence quality classification includes: a (high, very confident that the forecast is close to the true value), b (medium, moderately confident about the forecast), c (low, limited in the forecast) and d (extremely low, almost impossible to achieve); The recommended intensity classification includes: 1 (strong, clear that the advantages of realistic interventions outweigh the disadvantages), 2 (weak) (the advantages and disadvantages are uncertain or the evidence regardless of quality shows that the advantages and disadvantages are equal). For this guide, the author forms recommendation opinions on the basis of grading the quality of evidence, and grades its recommendation strength. |

Purpose of the guideline: | With the rapid development of digital technology and medical science, virtual reality (VR) technology has begun to be applied in the medical field. By leveraging VR technology, it is possible to achieve scenarios such as surgical training, simulated diagnosis and treatment, telemedicine, and rehabilitation training. This represents a new approach distinct from traditional methods, bringing new concepts and work models to the medical field. The integration of medicine and VR is a key area of focus for the nation, with various regions having introduced supportive policies for the development of VR in medicine. However, there is currently no technical guide or consensus in the domestic medical field regarding the construction of VR medical scenarios, implementation details, data interfaces, and platform development. Therefore, the Digital Orthopedics Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, the Chinese Geriatrics Society, the editorial board of the "Intelligent Medicine" series of textbooks under the "14th Five-Year Plan" curriculum, the Hubei Intelligent Medicine Society, and the Chinese Journal of Geriatrics have organized relevant experts to formulate the "China Virtual Reality Medical Practice Application Guide." This guide introduces the application background of VR technology in the Chinese medical industry, analyzes the current state of standardization of VR medical scenario construction both domestically and internationally, and establishes a standardized system for VR medical applications, aiming to promote and regulate the application of VR in medicine. |
