VR Versus Task-Oriented Circuit Training on UL Sensorimotor in Children With Immature Brain Injury
Sponsor: October 6 University
Summary
To investigate and compare the effect of virtual reality and task-oriented circuit training on pinch grip and quality of life in children with with immature brain injury. BACKGROUND: Children with immature brain injury may have limited use of their hands for functional activities and for fine motor skills. The primary function of the hand is hand grip, which has a great Influence on activities and tasks of daily life

Interventions
Virtual reality
Virtual reality (VR) will be applied as an interactive, task-oriented rehabilitation intervention targeting upper-extremity function. Participants will perform virtual tasks involving purposeful reaching, grasping, object manipulation, and directional movements of the affected upper limb. The difficulty and range of the tasks will be progressively adjusted according to each participant's functional ability to encourage active movement, repetitive practice, and motor learning.
Task-oriented circuit training
Task-oriented circuit training will be provided to improve upper-extremity functional performance through repetitive, goal-directed activities. Participants will perform a series of functional tasks involving reaching, grasping, lifting, transferring, and manipulating objects. The training will be organized as a circuit of exercise stations, with each station targeting a specific upper-extremity functional skill. Tasks will be progressively modified by increasing the movement complexity, speed, repetitions, or task demands according to the participant's functional ability. Participants will receive verbal instructions and feedback from the physiotherapist to facilitate accurate task performance and encourage active participation.
