Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to: (1) implement and test the feasibility of a new VR-ODT intervention offered as part of usual therapy time of patients with a sub-acute stoke; (2) explore the acceptability of the intervention from the perspective of clinicians and patients and; (3) implement measures to optimize the uptake and sustainability of the intervention within the clinical setting.

Participants will engage in a personalized VR-ODT training for 4 weeks (2X 1hr/week) targeting six well-established community walking demands related to (1) walking speed and (2) distance; (3) postural transitions; (4) obstacle avoidance; (5) dual-task walking and; (6) a combination of demands 1-5. For each demand, patients will progress through levels of increasing difficulty according to personalized goals and success criteria.

Virtual Reality Training

The VR intervention involves the intensive practice of community ambulation skills. The training sessions will be performed in a virtual environment. During the intervention, stroke participants will be invited to practice different dimensions of community ambulation, such as postural transitions, avoiding other pedestrians, dual-task walking, etc.
