Immersive VR after cardiac surgery with thoracotomy, a feasibility study

To investigate whether the use of VR is feasible in patients after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (cardiac surgery with thoracotomy)

tolerating oral foods. Gastric content can be assessed by gastric ultrasound and nurses were
recently trained to do so in healthy volunteers; however, feasibility of nurse-performed gastric
ultrasound after major abdominal surgery is not investigated yet.
Objective: To investigate the feasibility of nu
