Feasibility of Virtual Reality-Based Rehabilitation in Patients With Limited Mobility
Study title:
Customized Evidence-Based Motion Recognition Rehabilitation Exercise System for Bed Stabilization Patients
the purpose of the study This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of rehabilitation programs using motion recognition-based games for patients who are bedridden in hospital settings. The main purpose of the study is to determine whether digital rehabilitation can substantially contribute to the improvement and recovery of physical function in patients with limited physical functioning.
a study participant The study involved 28 adult patients who were hospitalized while lying in bed at a hospital. Participants use Nintendo Ring Fit, which provides a motion-aware-based game rehabilitation exercise program, and a personalized exercise plan is provided for each patient's physical condition.
research methodology Exercise Protocol: Participants will perform a personalized exercise program for two weeks through Nintendo Ring Fit. The exercise lasts about 30 minutes, once a day and is supported by a therapist. Exercise intensity and type are adjusted to suit the patient's physical condition so that they proceed safely.
Monitoring safety and effectiveness: Keep track of participants' physical functions (e.g., strength, mobility, etc.) during the study, and constantly monitor for any inconveniences or side effects that may occur during exercise sessions. This closely checks patients' motor responses and ensures safety.
the duration of the study The study runs from September 2024 to December 2025, during which participants will undergo rehabilitation exercises using motion recognition-based games.
Estimated results The study is expected to demonstrate that digital rehabilitation programs can be a safe and effective treatment option for patients who are bedridden in hospital settings. In addition, the findings will contribute to improving in-hospital rehabilitation practices and promoting physical recovery.
Safety Considerations All exercises conducted in this study are designed with safety as the top priority, and exercise intensity is adjusted to low intensity. If patients experience discomfort or side effects during the exercise, they are monitored closely and allowed to take the necessary action immediately. All exercises are conducted safely under the supervision of a medical professional.
