Title

Effects of Virtual Reality based Therapy on Balance in patients with neurological disorder - A Pilot Study

Abstract

The present study explores the use of virtual reality-based game as an enjoyable yet effective intervention to improve balance in patients with neurological disorder. VR Therapy described below consist of exercise which challenge balance and delivered with low-cost equipment like VR google card board. Methods: Efficacy was tested in a pilot group of 5 participants (2 male and 3 female) with varying neurological disorder with affected balance. Balance evaluation was done with Standard Berg-Balance scale and Functional reach test at the beginning of intervention and at 6 weeks. Total duration of intervention was 15-20 min, 4days/week for 6 weeks. Conventional therapy was also given to Participants along with VR therapy for 35-45min. Intervention was given in a supervised environment to establish safety criteria. .Results: This study shows that there is significance improvement in BBS score and Functional reach test from baseline to end of 6 weeks. Conclusion: These pilot study suggests that VR game therapy along with conventional therapy is effective in improving balance in patients with neurological disorders with impaired balance
