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.
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.
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.
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.
本范围综述探讨了扩展现实（虚拟现实、增强现实和混合现实）在睡眠健康、睡眠医学和睡眠研究中的应用。其旨在提供当前用途和实施注意事项的深入了解，同时突出未来研究的方向。
本研究采用系统范围综述，其依据为系统综述和荟萃分析的首选报告项目以及乔安娜·布里格斯研究所。
虚拟现实（VR）作为研究工具，用于研究做梦和记忆再激活等领域的应用正在不断增加。总共确定了 31 篇文章，其中 20 篇利用 VR 改善睡眠作为临床干预措施。
因此，有必要对 VR 作为各种患者群体和临床环境的临床干预措施的实用性进行研究。研究人员和临床医生应确保扩展现实干预措施基于临床推理，并参考睡眠医学和虚拟现实和增强现实效果的证据。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，以帮助将研究转化为临床实践。
