Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols were introduced as a method to optimize perioperative patient care. Narcotic medications are frequently utilized in postoperative care, but these have risks including sedation or dependence. Non-pharmacologic measures for postoperative pain control may help limit the need for opioids in postoperative pain control. Early mobilization is also important after surgery, however postoperative mobility is rarely monitored and relies on subjective reports. The investigators will seek to examine the implementation of an ERAS protocol using VR and Fitbit wearable activity devices on postoperative recovery after head and neck surgery. This is a prospective, 4-arm, randomized controlled trial.
