Motion-based gaming to improve balance and physical activity in patients with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI)

摘要

Motion based gaming was used in combination with standard therapy in 17 mild traumatic brain injury participants when compared to 20 controls to study the effectiveness of motion based gaming on physical activity level and postural stability measured by using body worn sensors. Significant improvements in number of steps, stability, and perceived motivation suggest promising use of motion based gaming in combination with physical therapy for improved rehabilitation outcomes in this population.
