Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Resistance test of the neck flexor muscles

    To perform this test that will give us the resistance in seconds, the therapist lifts the patient's head and neck until the occipital bone is approximately 2.5 cm from the table, keeping the chin tucked into the chest.

    change measures (Baseline, 3 weeks, 7 weeks, 10 weeks and 14 weeks)

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Cervical Joint Position Error Test

    change measures (Baseline, 3 weeks, 7 weeks, 10 weeks and 14 weeks)

  • Evaluation of User Satisfaction with Auxiliary Device Technology (QUEST 2.0)

    change measures (Baseline, 3 weeks, 7 weeks, 10 weeks and 14 weeks)

  • System Usability Scale (SUS):

    change measures (Baseline, 3 weeks, 7 weeks, 10 weeks and 14 weeks)

  • Suitability Evaluation Questionnaire (SEQ):

    change measures (Baseline, 3 weeks, 7 weeks, 10 weeks and 14 weeks)

  • Q-Sense (Thermotest)

    change measures (Baseline, 3 weeks, 7 weeks, 10 weeks and 14 weeks)

Study Arms (2)

Mixed reality

EXPERIMENTAL

Mixed reality exercise program using the Microsoft Hololens "Roboraid" game. This group received 6 exercise sessions over 3 weeks, 2 days/week with an interval of 48 to 72 hours between sessions, using the Microsoft Hololens "Roboraid" game. The duration of the sessions will be 10 minutes.

Other: Mixed reality

Conventional exercise group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Conventional exercise program in cervical region based in deep neck flexors and deep neck extensors, isometric contraction during 6-8 seconds. This group received 6 exercise sessions over 3 weeks, 2 days/week with an interval of 48 to 72 hours between sessions.

Other: Conventional exercise group

Interventions

This group received 6 exercise sessions over 3 weeks, 2 days/week with an interval of 48 to 72 hours between sessions, using the Microsoft Hololens "Roboraid" game. The duration of the sessions will be 10 minutes.

Mixed reality

This group received 6 exercise sessions over 3 weeks, 2 days/week with an interval of 48 to 72 hours between sessions. This program will consist on stabilisation exercises of the cervical region, in neck deep flexors and neck deep extensors muscles to provide them with strength and resistance

Conventional exercise group
