Summary

Prospective, controlled, randomized, non-masked longitudinal research project for the realization of a doctoral thesis, based on an intervention with virtual reality in order to assess whether the influence on balance and the oculomotor muscles is positive.

The introduction of new technologies in the field of medicine in all fields, and in particular the rehabilitation is fully in place and under development. There are numerous examples like these technologies, including virtual reality (VR), have helped different health fields such as surgery or physiotherapy.

The main aim of the study is to analyze these factors and analyze the way in which virtual reality (VR) can modulate the convergence of the gaze and can influence the center of pressure (COP). As secondary objectives es proposes to analyze the interrelationship between the VR and the COP to analyze the clinical possibilities of application in the field of rehabilitation, whether due to a downward (oculomotor) or upward alteration (COP alteration), as well as if physical activity or gender can also influence.

Conditions

  • Postural Balance

Interventions

DEVICE

Virtual Reality game

The game consists of cutting mobile targets, using lightsabers while avoiding obstacles that approach the user. This game is a reference for immersive play since, while distracting, it recreates a physical activity similar to what would be done in reality. It has been shown that the same energy expenditure, on the part of the user, practicing tennis in real life, is what he does playing "Beat Saber" playing the same period of time.
