MMed focus: Dr Wong

Determining the effect of the use of virtual reality on perioperative anxiety and patient satisfaction in patients undergoing regional anaesthesia

Dr Wong's MMed focuses on patients undergoing regional anaesthesia with the use of virtual reality within 18 months of a previous regional anaesthesia and comparing the two respective experiences, anxiety levels and current admission's patient satisfaction .

As the above mentioned measurements are subjective. Subjective measurements via questionnaires will be done. Patients will have a chance to experience a high tech gadget AND avoid the need for sedation!

Please assist in notifying if there are eligible patients for enrolment. Many thanks. Below is a short introduction on what virtual reality is 🥰

Father's Day

You say father, I say daddy 😉 ... The tradition of celebrating Father's Day began in the early 20th century. It was first observed in the United States in 1910, inspired by Mother's Day. The idea quickly spread worldwide, reaching South Africa and becoming an annual celebration.

The uprising was a major event in the struggle against apartheid in South Africa. Youth Day is also known as Soweto Day.
