  7. E.R.I.C. = Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy based on immersive experience - 1 First line treatment PTSD = exposure • Often drop out, or failure to comply • ERIC = aid to EB therapies • Bypassing avoidance • Need to better personalize treatment • Multi modular • Empowerment based • Version 1.0 • Other example 3MDR • Ministry of Defence 7 Introduction to Project ERIC 17 mei 2019

  8. Lack of improvement PTSD Drop out Resistance to therapy Motion is default Reconsolidation theory Empowerment! Cognitive avoidance International collaboration (NETH, UK, US, CAN, ISR) Ministry of Defence 8 Introduction to Project ERIC

  11. E.R.I.C. = Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy based on immersive experience -2 Adapted Based on 3MDR and Gray, adaptive disclosure • Sitting • Therapist is in the room! • Control is key • Narrative elements – personalized book with cognitive • frames, enhancers, correctors Voice to text • Eye tracking – therapist can see eye gaze • ‘Stage’ orientation, journey in own diary • Radio/music for memory recall, or stress reduction • Battle breathing, or game to distract • Pacing to own tempo – duration 45 minutes • Ministry of Defence 11 Introduction to Project ERIC 17 mei 2019

  12. E.R.I.C. = Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy based on immersive experience - 3 Keep cognitive tekst ‘in’ with every session • Revisiting effect – ‘peel off’ layers, new learning • Meaning making experience • Effect of immersiveness maximizes after 10 min • ‘ After talk’ • New pictures, new material, drawing, medals etc • After 3-5 sessions end with positive pictures • Learn to tolerate, accept, mindfull experience • remembering Ministry of Defence 12 Introduction to Project ERIC 17 mei 2019

  13. E.R.I.C. = Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy based on immersive experience - 4 Time per picture: max 6 minutes • 7 pictures per session • Monitor HR or HRV • VR ERIC: 1 preparatory session, 6 VR sessions, 2-3 • reconsolidation/reintegration sessions Ministry of Defence 13 Introduction to Project ERIC 17 mei 2019

  14. Current progress Dutch company “ Infinity Labs” started in April with • further development to Proof of Concept Added features: • More accurate heartrate monitoring • Respiration measuring • Enhanced eyetracking, including pupil and blink • monitoring 4K ready graphics • Controller-free interaction • Q3 2019 planned start scienctific research program • at Leiden University (NLD) for medical approval Ministry of Defence 14 Introduction to Project ERIC 17 mei 2019
