Remote Intelligent Interactive Virtual Reality Assessment in Patients With Degenerative Lumbar Spine Diseases

NCT ID: NCT05425680

Last Updated: 2025-07-28

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: NA
• Total Enrollment: 107 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2021-04-15
• Study Completion Date: 2025-07-15

Brief Summary

This study will combine virtual reality (VR) technology with machine learning to focus on functional movement. Patients' symptoms will be evaluated, and exercise instruction with real-time feedback will be provided. The goals of this research are to: (1) develop a waist digital sensor for real-time monitoring as an evaluation tool, (2) apply a real-time monitoring system in conjunction with virtual reality for telerehabilitation, and (3) develop the standard model.

Detailed Description

The remote assessment and training in this study can assist patients obtaining physical therapy care at home. It is suitable for patients who avoid going to the hospital due to the epidemic, and solve the problem of long-term treatment. The outcomes will provide DLSD patients tele-rehabilitation platform and system, help medical personnel to treat patients more effectively in the future, and reduce the burden of medical costs on close ones.

Conditions

Degenerative Lumbar Spine Diseases

Study Design

Study Groups

Core muscle training

specific rehabilitation exercise for improving functional movements

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

Core muscle training

Intervention Type: OTHER

Combining virtual reality technology and waist wearable sensors, training the pelvis and lumbar spine movements as the main training goal, it is estimated that two 1-hour training sessions per week, a total of 6 weeks of training, to improve the core muscle of patients with lumbar degenerative diseases muscle strength.
