摘要：

This study investigated the effects of Virtual Reality Immersion (VRI) as compared with Audio-Visual Distraction (AVD) on the self reported intensity, quality and reactions to severe itching episodes and the associated discomfort, in patients suffering from atopic dermatitis and pruritus. The study suggested that VRI and AVD may be useful non-pharmacological adjunct in reducing itching and discomfort.
