Realidade Virtual; Saúde Mental; IdososResumo
INTRODUÇÃO: A realidade virtual (RV) é uma tecnologia interativa com aplicações promissoras na saúde mental de idosos. No entanto, tal tema é subexplorado na literatura científica, o que justificou a realização desta revisão de escopo para mapear as evidências disponíveis, as abordagens utilizadas e as lacunas que orientarão futuras pesquisas. METODOLOGIA: A construção da presente revisão de escopo usou o checklist PRISMA-ScR e as recomendações metodológicas de Mattos, Cestari e Moreira (2023), compreendendo 5 etapas: 1) Formulação da pergunta de pesquisa seguindo o acrônimo PCC (População, Conceito e Contexto); 2) Escolha das bases de dados e das estratégias de busca; 3) Exportação dos estudos recuperados para o Rayyan e aplicação dos critérios de elegibilidade; 4) Seleção independente e cega dos artigos por dois revisores; 5) construção de uma tabela, sintetizando as evidências encontradas e estabelecimento das categorias de investigação. RESULTADO: Observaram-se 29 estudos que investigaram a relação entre o uso de aparelhos de RV e a saúde mental de idosos. Por conseguinte, os estudos foram categorizados em seis grupos: 1) dispositivos de realidade virtual empregados; 2) contexto de aplicação das realidades virtuais; 3) eficácia das intervenções de realidade virtual; 4) viabilidade e tolerância do uso da realidade virtual pelos participantes; 5) percepção dos participantes sobre a intervenção; 6) instrumentos de coleta de dados utilizados. DISCUSSÃO: O presente trabalho, convergindo com a literatura previamente publicada, demonstra que a RV, destacadamente através de Head Mounted Displays, pode melhorar o humor, reduzir a depressão e promover a interação social de pacientes idosos. CONCLUSÃO: Observou-se que a RV é potencial ferramenta terapêutica para a saúde mental de idosos, sendo bem aceita por este público. Sua flexibilidade permite adaptar as intervenções às necessidades individuais dos pacientes, contribuindo para melhores desfechos clínicos. Contudo, são necessárias investigações adicionais e mais abrangentes para confirmar os benefícios desta tecnologia.
