Follow-up Study of the Effectiveness of Virtual Reality Therapy in Patients With Stroke

High intensity motion improves motor functions and quality of life in a neurologist. The investigators want to improve the clinical condition and quality of life of post-STROKE participants with a special sensory motor and visual motor agility therapy. High intensity motion improves engine function and quality of life in a neurologist. With special sensory motor and visual motility, investigaters want to improve the clinical condition and quality of life of STROKE participants. The investigaters randomly select participants who only perform the rehabilitation treatment have performed. The other group that will receive the study's control group will receive the traditional rehabilitation physiotherapy treatment. The investigaters assess the condition and quality of life of the patients. (EQ5-D, Barthel index, MRS test) The ivestigaters examine the functional movement and equilibrium variables of patients. (6MWT, Berg balance test, postgraduation) After that, participants are undergoing a 4-week intensive rehabilitation treatment. All participants are in post stroke. Primary Hypothesis will be changes in life-quality tests (EQ5-D, Barthel index, MRS test). Functional tests show progress 6MWT, Berg balance test and postural control testing with posturography. The results are compared and evaluated among the groups. The expected hypothesis is that visual and acoustic stimulation produces a better physical state at higher intensity. Patients were followed for 2 years and participated in a follow-up study every six months.

Physiotherapy

Other

Physiotherapy 2-years-long (3/week)

Primary outcomes

  1. gait / functional test

    Time frame: 2 years, m (higher point is better)

    6 minute walk test (m)

  2. balance test

    Time frame: 2 years, (41-56 = low fall risk, 21-40 = medium fall risk, 0 -20 = high fall risk )

    Berg Balance Test

  3. postrural control test

    Time frame: 2 years, mm (2 year-long, the smaller the mm the better the result)

    posturography

  4. Quality of life measured by EQ5-D scale

    Time frame: 2 years, 0-5 scale (2 year-long, higher point is better)
