Hospital communication systems designed to provide entertainment for patients and to provide two-way communication between healthcare personnel and patients during medical procedures, such as magnetic resonance imaging. They are intended to help patients become more comfortable by providing a distraction in order to reduce anxiety and claustrophobia during medical procedures. These systems are usually comprised of video and audio capabilities, such as video, television, and radio input, and adjustable, integrated audio-video headset with volume adjustments that can be controlled by the patient and by healthcare personnel. Hospital communication/entertainment systems that can provide access to on-demand entertainment, educational programming, web content, and e-mail, are also available.
