Implementation of Virtual Reality Technology in Post-Stroke Rehabilitation

Project Abstract

Virtual reality (VR) technology has gained significant attention in the field of medical rehabilitation for its potential to enhance traditional therapy methods and improve patient outcomes. This research project focuses on the implementation of VR technology in post-stroke rehabilitation to explore its effectiveness in improving motor function and quality of life for stroke survivors. The study aims to investigate the impact of VR-based interventions on functional recovery, mobility, and cognitive abilities among post-stroke patients.
