Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Virtual reality (VR) systems enable the learning of simple and complex skills in a controlled virtual environment; i.e., one in which the different components (constraints) of the environment can be displayed, graded, changed and monitored in a quantitative manner.

Small preliminary studies suggest that VR may be used to augment chronic stroke rehabilitation and may enhance cortical reorganization. Our aim is to examine the feasibility and efficacy of a virtual reality program for ambulatory patients with mild-to-moderate chronic gait deficits after stroke. Study design-a single center randomized controlled trial of an experimental group and a usual care group.
