Overview

Systematic review evaluates virtual reality physiotherapy's impact on motor recovery in stroke patients, suggesting significant improvements.

Key Points

  • Virtual reality-based physiotherapy shows significant benefits for motor recovery in post-stroke patients.
  • Eight studies with 439 participants indicated improved upper limb motor function and functional independence with VR interventions.
  • The systematic review followed PRISMA guidelines, focusing on randomized and observational trials targeting motor recovery.
  • Findings support VR as an adjunct to traditional rehabilitation, although variability in design limits generalizability.
