Table 6 Barriers and solutions to VR implementation in clinical practices

From: Virtual reality-enhanced rehabilitation for improving musculoskeletal function and recovery after trauma

Barrier

Challenge

Proposed solution

Regulatory hurdles

VR systems require FDA/CE approval for clinical use

Conduct RCTs, integrate real-world data

Technological gaps

Lack of haptic feedback prevents proprioception training

Develop Al-driven force-feedback mechanisms

Cost constraints

Expensive hardware and service maintenance

Offer monthly subscription models, insurance advocacy

Patient compliance

VR motion sickness, rehab fatigue

Adaptive difficulty, biofeedback monitoring
