NCT04469881

Brief Summary

The purpose of this research study is to test the safety, tolerability, and effectiveness of watching streamed videos through virtual reality (VR) goggles during surgery. The results of this study will be used to evaluate whether video-streaming services on VR goggles are worthwhile additions to standard anesthesia care during total knee surgery.
