Pilot study shows virtual reality rehabilitation improves user experience and neuroplasticity in stroke patients, indicating potential functional gains.
The study showed the preliminary feasibility of a rehabilitation program using the VSS. It addressed the essential topic of assessing VR-based rehabilitation user experience throughout the entire training period, shedding light on the features that can contribute to an optimal psychological experience. Clinical outcomes suggested that the VSS promoted neuroplasticity and that the recorded improvements could translate into meaningful functional gains in daily activities. Further studies with larger samples and patients with more severe disabilities are needed to confirm these results.
