Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Leap Motion-supported virtual reality therapy, applied in addition to traditional rehabilitation programs, in individuals who develop hemiplegia after a cerebrovascular accident. The study will examine the effects of this additional therapy on upper extremity functions, activities of daily living, and participation levels.

Conditions

  • Upper Extremity Hemiplegia
  • Stroke
  • Virtual Reality Based Therapy

Interventions

DEVICE

leap motion based virtual reality rehabilitation

The VR system was implemented using the Leap Motion device, which incorporates an infrared depth sensor capable of detecting limb movements in three-dimensional space. This technology enables users to interact with the virtual environment without the need for a handheld controller; instead, the user's upper extremities function directly as the interface. During the intervention, patients participated in computer-based rehabilitation while seated, with the motion sensor positioned to accurately capture hand and wrist movements.

OTHER

conventional rehabilitation

Conventional rehabilitation consisted of joint range of motion exercises, stretching, strengthening, balance and postural control training, transfer training, gait training, stair climbing exercises, and neurophysiological exercise techniques, all performed under the supervision of a physiotherapist.
