Brief Summary

Use of SIlverfit 3d to aid in rehab of stroke patients focusing on their shoulder and knee strength

Conditions

Stroke, Acute

Keywords

virtual reality; Silverfit 3D; rehabilitation

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• To estimate an improvement in muscle strength using the Medical Research Council (MRC) grading following the intervention.

  Use of MRC grade to estimate improvement in muscle strength by a group of trained physiotherapists before, during and after the use of virtual reality equipment.

  3 months

• estimate how much a patient can do compared to his/her baseline in terms of ability to stand/ambulation/reaching out for objects based on the physiotherapist who first saw the patient.

  Patients will be interviewed on admission by the physiotherapist to find out his/her baseline activities of daily living/strength and limb power. Physiotherapists will assess the patient again on day of discharge to find out how much the patient is able to return to his/her baseline post stroke. This is a descriptive outcome measure as it is only measured by 1 physiotherapist who has seen the patient on admission and then on discharge from hospital.

  3 months

• increase frequency and intensity of rehab activities in stroke patients

  To increase frequency of rehab activities in patients in terms of percentage of patients who can do, time of each exercise

  6 months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• reduce length of stay in ICU

  3 months
