This study will evaluate whether or not wearing a virtual reality (VR) headset reduces pain and anxiety in patients undergoing vasectomy. The headset being used is the SmileyScope virtual reality interface, a device already undergoing study for approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to reduce pain and anxiety in patients aged 4 years and older undergoing needle blood draw or injection procedures. In this study, the SmileyScope virtual reality interface is considered an investigational device because it is not yet approved for use in adult males undergoing vasectomy. Read Less

The purpose of this project is to determine if a change in patient reported pain, nausea and vomiting after total knee arthroplasty can be observed with the substitution of a post operative adductor canal block for a preoperative adductor canal block in the current established peri-operative pain protocol and if these changes lead to a decrease in opioid consumption (in morphine equivalents).

Approximately 20% of Veterans have a diagnosis of dry eye (DE) syndrome which is often accompanied by ocular pain that significantly impacts activities of daily living. Currently very few treatments are available for chronic ocular pain, likely because the mechanisms underlying this type of pain have only recently begun to be studied. New treatments that target the neuropathic mechanisms contributing to this type of pain are needed. The proposed research provides a crucial step in addressing the lack of treatments for neuropathic ocular pain by validating the methodology needed to support a randomized controlled trial of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS). TENS is a non-pharmacologic, non-addictive, non-invasive treatment that has been shown to be effective in other chronic pain conditions. The present pilot study aims to address the need for preliminary support of safety and efficacy of TENS for ocular pain, t to advance the study of new treatments for the long-term relief of chronic ocular pain and its impact on health.
