A Convergent Mixed Methods Design to Assess the Use of the Home Virtual Rehabilitation System By Persons with Chronic Stroke
GAMES FOR HEALTH JOURNAL(2024)
摘要
Purpose: Patients poststroke utilized the Home Virtual Rehabilitation System (HoVRS) to perform home-based, gamified upper extremity rehabilitation over 12 weeks. Outcomes related to adherence and clinical improvement were collected, and semistructured interviews were conducted to assess intrinsic and extrinsic motivators that impacted engagement with the system.Methods: Subjects performed between 299 and 2020 minutes of self-scheduled, sparsely supervised hand rehabilitation activities in their homes.Results: As a group, the subjects demonstrated statistically significant improvements at the structure/function, activity, and activities of daily living levels of function. Qualitative analysis generated seven themes that both positively and negatively influenced each subject's experience with HoVRS, including challenge as a primary intrinsic motivator and pursuing additional therapy and/or a return to higher functional status as a key extrinsic motivator. Subjects' ratings of the system using the Intrinsic Motivation Inventory before and after treatment were uniformly positive, but interview-based feedback was more balanced between positive and negative.
