Sensorimotor Training in a Virtual Reality Environment: Does It Improve Functional Recovery Poststroke?

Abstract

It is difficult in current service delivery models to provide the intensity of practice that appears to be needed to effect neural reorganization and functional changes poststroke. Computerized exercise systems may be a way to maximize both the patients' and the clinicians' time. The data in this study add support to the proposal to explore novel technologies for incorporation into current practice.
