Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Wii Fit
The Wii Fit training was conducted using the Wii Fit bundle from Nintendo, which consists of the Wii console, a Wii Balance Board, and the Wii Fit Plus balance game disc. The Wii balance board has 4 transducers, which could assess the player's force distribution and resultant movements in the center of pressure (COP). The participants stood on the board and used the change of COP to play the games. Five games (Tilt, Soccer Heading, Balance Bubble, Penguin Slide, and Perfect 10) were selected from the Wii Fit Plus package based on the motor demand of these games. The major movement patterns to play the games included right-left weight shifting and front-back weight shifting.
Wii Fit(30 Mins)
Receive Wi Fit games training for 30 minutes. There are 2 sections for 1 week; the intervention period will be 12 weeks.
Tetrax biofeedback
The Tetrax biofeedback games aimed at postural rehabilitation to help patients or athletes improve their balance abilities. There were 11 games in Tetrax system; 8 games (Speedtrack, Catch, Skyball, Gotcha, Speedball, Tag, Freeze, Immobilizer) were chosen based on the same principle as those used for choosing Wii Fit games. The parameters of games' difficulties included target size and/or speed of target movement, which could be adjusted according to the patients' ability.
For the Wii Fit or Tetrax group, at each session, the supervising therapist chose 3 to 5 games for participants according to their ability, needs, and favorites.
Tetrax biofeedback(30 Mins)
Receive Tetrax biofeedback games training for 30 minutes. There are 2 sections for 1 week; the intervention period will be 12 weeks.
Conventional weight-shifting
The conventional weight-shifting exercise group performed balance exercises with the similar movements and time required by the 2 exergame systems but without video games. By using occupational activities, participants did weight shifting in the sagittal and frontal planes. The investigators also used a balance board (Reebok Core board) for multi-directional weight shifting training
Conventional weight-shifting(30 Mins)
Receive weight-shifting exercise training for 30 minutes. There are 2 sections for 1 week; the intervention period will be 12 weeks.
