Cognitive Virtual-Reality Based Stroke Rehabilitation
Stroke is a debilitating condition with major costs for patients and their care-givers. Here we present a novel virtual reality (VR) based cognitive neurorehabilitation system for improving the rehabilitation of stroke patients with arm and hand paresis. Using a custom, low-cost kinematic tracking system designed for clinical or home use, patients engage in task-oriented interactions with objec...

In order to assess the program it was applied (pre and post) the WCST, WAIS-III sub-tests, Stroop Test, and The Subjective Scale to Investigate Cognition in Schizophrenia. ...
متن کاملRehabJim: A Third Person Approach To Virtual Reality Biomechanical Rehabilitation
RehabJim is a Unity3D application developed on behalf of researchers at a major Rehabilitation Institute in order to explore the opportunities that Virtual Reality may offer to biomechanical and neurological rehabilitation. In particular, our work focuses on arm actions peformed while standing by patients post-stroke. We leverage a 3D immersive environment, augmented with Kinect interaction. Ou...
متن کاملUsing the Virtual Reality-Cognitive Rehabilitation Approach to Improve Contextual Processing in Children with Autism
BACKGROUND This pilot study investigated the efficacy of a novel virtual reality-cognitive rehabilitation (VR-CR) intervention to improve contextual processing of objects in children with autism. Previous research supports that children with autism show deficits in contextual processing, as well as deficits in its elementary components: abstraction and cognitive flexibility. METHODS Four chil...
