Project Abstract

Abstract
Virtual reality (VR) technology has shown great promise in the field of medical rehabilitation, particularly for stroke survivors who often face challenges in regaining motor function and independence. This research project explores the potential of VR-based rehabilitation programs in improving the physical and cognitive abilities of stroke survivors. The study aims to investigate the effectiveness of VR interventions in enhancing motor skills, balance, coordination, and overall quality of life for individuals recovering from stroke. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the research topic, giving an overview of the background of the study, the problem statement, research objectives, study limitations, scope, significance, structure, and definition of key terms. Chapter 2 presents a comprehensive literature review highlighting previous studies, theories, and findings related to VR-based rehabilitation for stroke survivors. The review covers topics such as the benefits of VR technology, current trends in stroke rehabilitation, and the potential impact of VR interventions on motor recovery and functional outcomes. Chapter 3 outlines the research methodology, including the research design, participant selection criteria, data collection methods, intervention protocols, outcome measures, and data analysis techniques. The chapter also discusses ethical considerations and potential challenges in conducting the study. Chapter 4 presents the findings of the research, analyzing the effects of VR-based rehabilitation on the motor and cognitive abilities of stroke survivors. The discussion includes an exploration of the strengths and limitations of the intervention, as well as recommendations for future research and clinical practice. In conclusion, Chapter 5 summarizes the key findings of the study and provides recommendations for integrating VR-based rehabilitation programs into clinical practice. The research contributes to the growing body of evidence supporting the use of VR technology in stroke rehabilitation and underscores the potential of virtual reality to enhance recovery outcomes for individuals living with the effects of stroke. Overall, this research project aims to advance understanding in the field of medical rehabilitation and improve the quality of care and support available to stroke survivors undergoing rehabilitation.
