What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

ROPVR, a multi-centre, pragmatic randomized controlled trial (RCT) aims to evaluate a VR-technology which has been developed within an exploratory study and a development study, which facilitates social functioning among persons with a substance use and mental health disorder. Investigators will test a VR-program versus treatment as usual among patients enrolled into a long-term addiction-treatment facility. The RCT aims to evaluate the effectiveness of VR training compared to treatment as usual in improving resilience, quality of life, practical and social functioning and social participation (from baseline to 6 months), and to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of VR training versus treatment as usual.
