Abstract

Study objectives: This scoping review explores the use of extended reality (virtual, augmented, and mixed reality) within sleep health, sleep medicine, and sleep research. It aims to provide insight into current uses and implementation considerations whilst highlighting directions for future research.

Methods: A systematic scoping review was undertaken informed by the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses for scoping reviews and Johanna Briggs Institute.

Results: The use of virtual reality (VR) as a research tool in the investigation of areas such as dreaming and memory reactivation is growing. Thirty-one articles were identified in total with 20 utilizing VR to improve sleep as a clinical intervention.

Conclusions: Research exploring the utility of VR as a clinical intervention in various patient populations and clinical settings is therefore warranted. Researchers and clinicians should ensure that extended reality interventions are developed based on clinical reasoning and informed by evidence of both sleep medicine and the effects of virtual and augmented reality. Where possible future research should utilize up-to-date technology and reporting frameworks to assist in the translation of research into clinical practice.

扩展现实在睡眠健康、医学和研究中的应用:范围综述。

研究目标:本综述探讨了扩展现实(虚拟、增强和混合现实)在睡眠健康、睡眠医学和睡眠研究中的应用。它旨在提供对当前使用和实施考虑的见解，同时突出未来研究的方向。方法:通过系统评价的首选报告项目和范围评价的荟萃分析以及约翰娜布里格斯研究所进行系统范围评价。结果:越来越多的研究人员将虚拟现实(VR)作为研究做梦和记忆再激活等领域的工具。共确定了31篇文章，其中20篇利用VR作为临床干预来改善睡眠。结论:因此，研究VR作为临床干预在不同患者群体和临床环境中的效用是有必要的。研究人员和临床医生应确保扩展现实干预措施是基于临床推理开发的，并以睡眠医学和虚拟现实和增强现实的效果为依据。在可能的情况下，未来的研究应利用最新的技术和报告框架，以协助将研究转化为临床实践。

期刊介绍： SLEEP® publishes findings from studies conducted at any level of analysis, including: Genes Molecules Cells Physiology Neural systems and circuits Behavior and cognition Self-report SLEEP® publishes articles that use a wide variety of scientific approaches and address a broad range of topics. These may include, but are not limited to: Basic and neuroscience studies of sleep and circadian mechanisms In vitro and animal models of sleep, circadian rhythms, and human disorders Pre-clinical human investigations, including the measurement and manipulation of sleep and circadian rhythms Studies in clinical or population samples. These may address factors influencing sleep and circadian rhythms (e.g., development and aging, and social and environmental influences) and relationships between sleep, circadian rhythms, health, and disease Clinical trials, epidemiology studies, implementation, and dissemination research.
