1963 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Surgery
  • Internal medicine
  • Cognition

His scientific interests lie mostly in Virtual reality, Physical therapy, Exposure therapy, Clinical psychology and Analgesic. His research integrates issues of Phobias and Anxiety in his study of Virtual reality. His Physical therapy research includes themes of Debridement, Clinical trial, Distraction and Wound care.

His research in Distraction focuses on subjects like Randomized controlled trial, which are connected to Severity of illness, Range of motion, Periodontist and Pain control. The concepts of his Exposure therapy study are interwoven with issues in Psychotherapist and Anxiety disorder. Hunter G. Hoffman combines subjects such as Total body surface area, Flash burn, Dentistry and Video game with his study of Analgesic.

His most cited work include:

  • Virtual reality as an adjunctive pain control during burn wound care in adolescent patients. (374 citations)
  • Unconscious acquisition of complex procedural knowledge. (372 citations)
  • Misinformation and Memory: The Creation of New Memories (349 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Virtual reality, Physical therapy, Distraction, Analgesic and Physical medicine and rehabilitation. The study incorporates disciplines such as Exposure therapy, Anxiety, Pain control and Cognition in addition to Virtual reality. His Exposure therapy research incorporates elements of Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy, Clinical psychology and Phobias.

His Physical therapy research includes elements of Total body surface area, Randomized controlled trial, Wound care and Rating scale. His Distraction study combines topics in areas such as Surgery and Outpatient clinic. His Analgesic study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Nausea and Functional magnetic resonance imaging.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Virtual reality (55.20%)
  • Physical therapy (34.40%)
  • Distraction (26.40%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Virtual reality (55.20%)
  • Physical therapy (34.40%)
  • Distraction (26.40%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His main research concerns Virtual reality, Physical therapy, Distraction, Anxiety and Analgesic. The various areas that Hunter G. Hoffman examines in his Virtual reality study include Procedural Pain, Wound care, Physical medicine and rehabilitation, Cognition and Illusion. His Physical therapy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Orthopedic surgery, Sleep quality and Rating scale.

His Distraction study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Pain management, Outpatient clinic, Severe pain, Randomized controlled trial and Venipuncture. His Anxiety research incorporates elements of Intervention, Dialectical behavior therapy, Mindfulness and Virtual reality therapy. His studies deal with areas such as Hypnotic, Cerebral palsy and Acute pain as well as Analgesic.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Meditation experts try Virtual Reality Mindfulness: A pilot study evaluation of the feasibility and acceptability of Virtual Reality to facilitate mindfulness practice in people attending a Mindfulness conference (40 citations)
  • Immersive Virtual Reality as an Adjunctive Non-opioid Analgesic for Pre-dominantly Latin American Children With Large Severe Burn Wounds During Burn Wound Cleaning in the Intensive Care Unit: A Pilot Study (28 citations)
  • Deterioration rates in Virtual Reality Therapy: An individual patient data level meta-analysis. (24 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Surgery
  • Internal medicine
  • Cognition

Hunter G. Hoffman mainly investigates Anxiety, Physical therapy, Virtual reality, Distraction and Mindfulness. Hunter G. Hoffman combines subjects such as Intervention, Randomized controlled trial, Virtual reality therapy and Odds ratio with his study of Anxiety. Physical therapy is closely attributed to Intensive care unit in his research.

His study in Virtual reality is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Analgesic, Severe burn, Wound care and Rating scale. Hunter G. Hoffman focuses mostly in the field of Distraction, narrowing it down to topics relating to Pain management and, in certain cases, Nausea, Venipuncture and Hematological Diseases. His study on Mindfulness also encompasses disciplines like

  • Anger, which have a strong connection to Active listening, Applied psychology and Session,
  • Depression which connect with Clinical psychology.
