Brief Summary:
The specific study aims will be:
1. To design and develop the hardware and software of the VR+MT and MR+MT systems.
2. To test the feasibility of the VR+MT and MR+MT systems from the patients and to collect the feedback of users with respect to their experiences.
3. To examine the treatment effects of VR+MT and MR+MT compared to the traditional MT (i.e., control group) in patients with stroke by conducting a randomized controlled trial.
4. To identify who will be the possible good responders to VR+MT and MR+MT based on their baseline motor functions and mental imagery abilities.
Detailed Description:
Phase Ⅰ: Design and Development of the VR+MT and MR+MT Systems \& Feasibility Study
Sixteen patients with stroke will be recruited in this phase Ⅰ study. During the pilot testing, each stroke patient will use each of the VR+MT and MR+MT systems with the assistance of a researcher holding the occupational therapist certification. The order of the feasibility test of the 2 systems will be counterbalanced across the patients. At the end of the feasibility study of each system, the patients will be asked to complete the System Usability Scale, Virtual Reality Sickness Questionnaire, and a self-designed questionnaire to assess the user experience and perspective about these new systems and their view of its suitability for stroke patients.
Phase Ⅱ: Validation and Comparison of Clinical Treatment Efficacy
This three-arm, single-blind, randomized controlled trial will investigate the treatment effects among the 3 groups of VR+MT, MR+MT, and traditional MT. An estimated 45 patients with stroke will be recruited to participate in this phase Ⅱ study. Each participant will receive a total of 15 training sessions (40 minutes per session) within 5 weeks. Clinical outcome measures will be conducted at baseline, at immediately after treatment, and at 1 month follow-up after treatment.
