3MDR is an emerging virtual-reality supported intervention that is being studied. To date, publications have focused this intervention on military members and veterans who experienced combat trauma and meet the criteria for treatment resistance. Recent studies have started to address the use of this intervention with other demographics affected by post-traumatic stress injuries such as public safety personnel and healthcare professions both as a primary and secondary intervention. This presentation will discuss the current state and research surrounding 3MDR and discuss how this, and other novel technological interventions, may assist PSP with PTSI and moral injury.
