Effect of Home-Based Virtual Reality Training on Upper Extremity Recovery in Patients With Stroke: Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability, often resulting in upper extremity dysfunction. Traditional rehabilitation methods often face challenges such as limited patient access to resources and lack of sustained motivation. Home-based virtual reality (VR) training is gaining traction as an innovative, sustainable, and interactive alternative. However, the effect of home-based VR, specifically for upper extremity recovery in patients with stroke, remains insufficiently explored.

Objective

This systematic review aims to synthesize existing evidence to evaluate the impact of home-based VR interventions on upper extremity function recovery in patients with stroke.

Methods

This systematic review followed the guidelines of the PRISMA (Preferred Reportin
