Activities of Daily Living (ADL) Virtual Reality (VR) for Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) Upper-Limb Rehabilitation

NCT07026630 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2025-12-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Acquired brain injury (ABI) individuals have shown greater engagement and functional recovery when trained in virtual reality (VR)-assisted rehabilitation therapies.

After developing an activities of daily living (ADL)-focused VR system in a prior study, this related follow-up study aims to test the efficacy and impact of this VR system on upper-limb rehabilitation outcomes of ABI individuals when routinely integrated into treatment plans.

Interventions

DEVICE

Cooking In the Kitchen

The virtual reality (VR) training tool simulates cooking, an activity of daily living (ADL). The layout of VR environments intentionally place ingredients, tools, and the recipe book far away from the user to require gross upper-limb physical movements. Successful step completion requires reaching to obtain ingredients or turn book pages, grabbing to hold or release objects, and chopping, scooping, stirring, and pouring motions to prepare food items. The VR tool includes three versions of varying graphical complexity: Simple, Standard, and Complex. Complexity is controlled by stimuli count and detail level. For example, Simple features an empty room with monotone colors, basic shapes, and no extra features. In contrast, Complex resembles a fully-fledged kitchen with color patterns, textures, background details, and sounds.
