Die WHO teilt in einem differenzierten Blick den erschwerten Zugang zum Gesundheitssystem in drei unterschiedliche Stufen ein, die sie primär, sekundär und co-morbid nennt. Das soll im folgenden Abschnitt deutlicher dargestellt werden. Primary Health Conditions Primary Health Condition ist ...
Players who are easily upset may find losing in a competitive game to be very unpleasant, and some may simply not enjoy competing at all [23]. Cooperative gameplay may therefore be a safer choice for motor rehabilitation. However, there is one potential benefit that competitive gameplay may ...
The first author (YC), who was experienced in using EyeToy Play and EyeToy Play 2 games to train children with cerebral palsy, created the items needed for inclusion in the game analysis table. These items were similar to Deutsch et al. [13] and included game features (e.g., goal of...
The importance of motivational strategies is further emphasized by Heyn and colleagues [30], who explicitly state that previous interventions did not integrate appropriate motivational concepts to foster participation and enhance motivation in older adults with CI.

This simplified interface facilitates the learning process for those who never used a computer. A pilot study of the Reh@City prototype for a single session with 10 stroke patients [40] revealed a good level of usability (M = 77 %) as assessed through the System Usability Scale [41]....

suggesting that an intervention’s ability to induce clinically-meaningful change may relate to improvements in paretic propulsion. This early investigation into how measures of propulsion differentiate individuals who respond and do not respond to activity-based locomotor therapies influenced future treatment...
More recently, Morone et al [118] have proposed to change the scientific question about the effectiveness of these robotic devices into "who may benefit from robotic-assisted gait training?". The authors found that robotic therapy combined with conventional therapy is more effective than conventional...
s limb being moved passively. This means that it is necessary for the system to sense when the patient is trying to generate the required movement (given that, by definition, the patient normally struggles with the action). One potential solution to this issue is to use force sensors that ...
