Summary

This is a single-blinded randomized control trial aiming to explore the use of immersive virtual reality (VR) training in conjunction with real-life tasks therapy in 75 first time stroke patients with upper limb weakness.

Conditions

  • Hemiparesis as Late Effect of Cerebrovascular Disease

Interventions

OTHER

Immersive virtual reality + related functional translation into real-life

The experimental group will perform tasks in an immersive virtual reality setting designed to encourage functional task performance for 30 minutes. The patient will then be brought to a real-life setting and evaluated on similar task performances for an additional 30 minutes for a total of 60 minutes per day, 3 times a week for 2 weeks.

OTHER

Immersive virtual reality + non-related translation into real-life

The control group will also be asked to perform tasks in an immersive VR setting for 30 minutes, however tasks will be unrelated to the tasks performed in the real-life setting in the following 30 minutes. The control group will also receive 60 minutes of therapy a day, 3 times a week, for 2 weeks.
