Easier MRIs For Kids

Ready Teddy is a VR tool that prepares kids for an MRI. It habituates patients to the sights and sounds of an MRI in a friendly way while providing coping mechanisms to reduce patient anxiety and movement. This increases the likelihood of a successful scan.

Quantifiable Results

Status Quo

30% of research data is lost from incomplete scans
49% of pediatric MRIs are sedated
Sedation takes 2.5x longer, costing valuable scanner time and negatively impacts patient experience

With Ready Teddy

Children are prepared for the procedure
Patients learn to stay still
Mock scanners reduce the need for sedation

“Ready Teddy helps a patient be still, calm, and learn about the procedure. The simulation is time saving, can help reduce the need for sedation. This can improve clinical practice.”
