ObjectiveTo report the use of virtual reality (VR) in pain intensity during dressing change of two burned children hospitalized in a Burn Treatment Center (BTC) in Southern Brazil.MethodCase report on the use of VR during dressing change of two burned children hospitalized in a BTC, from May to July 2016. For assessing pain, a facial pain rating scale was applied at four times: just before the dressing, during the dressing without the use of VR, during the dressing with the VR, and after the use of VR.ResultsThe use of goggles was easy to apply and well-accepted by the children, and also had a relevant effect reducing pain.ConclusionVR can become an important nonpharmacological method for treating pain in burned children.
