Virtual reality therapy for upper limb rehabilitation in patients with stroke: a meta-analysis of randomized clinical trialsStrokestroke rehabilitationvirtual reality therapyupper limbBackground: Stroke is a major cause of life-long disability in adults, associated with poor quality of life. Virtual ...
Israeli hospitals have recently started to use virtual reality therapy for stroke patients. One commonly used program has the patient watch his virtual image on a screen. For example, tennis balls are virtually thrown at the patient from all directions and the patients' actual hand motions are re...
An important aspect of treatment for stroke patients is rehabilitation, both while still in the hospital and later in rehabilitation facilities as well as at home. Many studies have shown effective virtual reality (VR)-based general therapy systems after stroke. In particular, systems for motor ...
A new study published today is the first to explore the usability of virtual reality games for helping stroke patients recover from this condition. Lead researcher Dr. Stephanie Rossit, from UEA's School of Psychology, said: "A stroke can damage the brain, so that it no longer receives info...
Virtual reality (VR) is considered to be a promising therapeutic technology for the rehabilitation of upper extremities (UEs) post-stroke. Recently, we designed and then implemented a neuroscientifically grounded VR protocol for the rehabilitation of patients with stroke. The system provides unilateral...
To conclude, the results of this research support the effectiveness of virtual reality games for upper extremity rehabilitation in chronic stroke patients. Our results showed that this method could be used along with other therapeutic methods of physiotherapy to improve patients' upper limb movements. ...
BACKGROUND: The objective of this analysis was to systematically review the evidence for virtual reality (VR) therapy in an adult post-stroke population in both custom built virtual environments (VE) and commercially available gaming systems (CG). METHODS: MEDLINE, CINAHL, EMBASE, ERIC, PSYCInfo...

This image provided by Oxford VR in July 2018 shows a virtual reality viewpoint from a simulation designed to help people with a fear of heights. Virtual reality therapy can help patients by exposing them gradually to their greatest terrors. The technology is just now reaching the mainstream aft...
Virtual reality could assist arm rehabilitation in some stroke patients, according to a clinical pilot study published in the open access Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation. The researchers found that using virtual reality to increase a patie
