Comparing the Effect of Semi‐Immersive Virtual Reality, Computerized Cognitive Training, and Traditional Rehabilitation on Cognitive Function in Multiple Sclerosis: A Randomized Clinical Trial

Key Points

This research aims to compare the effects of semi-immersive virtual reality, computerized cognitive training, and traditional rehabilitation on cognitive function in individuals with multiple sclerosis.
Randomized clinical trial design
Participants received semi-immersive VR, computerized cognitive training, or traditional rehabilitation
Evaluation of cognitive function outcomes through assessments
Semi-immersive VR shows promising improvements in cognitive function
Computerized cognitive training also yields positive results
Traditional rehabilitation remains effective but may be less engaging

Abstract

Semi-immersive VR represents an effective and engaging approach to cognitive rehabilitation in MS, likely due to its capacity to deliver multisensory, adaptive, and ecologically valid stimulation. Nonetheless, a tailored hybrid model integrating VR with conventional and computer-based strategies may further optimize outcomes and support functional independence in individuals with MS.
