The Pain Medicine Care Complex utilizes one-of-a-kind video gaming therapy, holistic therapeutic tools, and digital data collection to enable short and long-term measurement of patient progress. For the first time, physicians are able to quantitatively measure pain and assess treatment progress in pediatric patients—all within an environment that was specially designed for their needs. The data collected during therapy allows the physician to determine the optimal course of treatment for each patient and forms the backbone of the ongoing research in the Institute. Through a cost-effective, continuous loop where data drives clinical care, and clinical care drives future research, Children’s National is developing innovative, evidence-based solutions to help eliminate pediatric pain, transforming the way care is delivered to children in the United States and around the world.
