Wii-FitTM을 이용한 가상현실 운동프로그램이 뇌졸중 환자의 균형 및 보행능력에 미치는 영향 = The Effects of Virtual Reality Exercise Program with Wii-Fit^(TM)on Dynamic Balance and Walking Ability in Patients with Stroke

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Objectives: This study was to investigate the effects on using Virtual reality exercise program Wii-Fit^(TM) for dynamic balance and walking ability in patients with stroke. Methods: The 22 subjects were randomly selected from the patients of the S hospital who met the study conditions. They were divided into a Wii-Fit^(TM)balance game group of 12 patients and a conventional physical therapy group of 10 patients. The Wii-Fit^(TM)balance game group received Wii-Fit^(TM)balance game and general physiotherapy for 5 days a weeks, 30 minutes a day, for a 4 weeks and the conventional physical therapy group received general physiotherapy for the same period. The subjects were measured and compared for Brunel balance assessment, functional gait assessment, 6 minute walk test, GAIT Rite system before and after the program. Results:The experimental group tend to improve more than control group in shifting the weight to the affected side(p=0.040) and tap test(p<0.001). The experimental group tend to improve more than control group in FGA (p=0.016). The experimental group improved significantly more than control group in 6MWT (p=0.008). The experimental group improved significantly more than control group in gait speed, cadence, stride length. Conclusions: Virtual Reality program (Wii-Fit^(TM)) with conventional physical therapy shows the benefits on dynamic balance and gait parameters in patients with stroke.
