Comparing virtual reality exergaming with conventional exercise in rehabilitation of people with multiple sclerosis: A systematic review

Amir Majid Moeinzadeh et al.

Summary: This systematic review compares the impacts of conventional exercise and virtual reality exergaming on the physical and cognitive abilities of people with multiple sclerosis. The analysis of 10 randomized clinical trials suggests that virtual reality exergaming generally exceeds conventional exercise in improving physical and cognitive abilities, psychosocial status, and fatigue.

Virtual reality-based therapy improves balance and reduces fear of falling in patients with multiple sclerosis. a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Irene Cortes-Perez et al.

Summary: This study conducted a meta-analysis to assess the effect of VRBT on balance dimensions and fear of falling in PwMS. The results showed that VRBT is effective in improving functional and dynamic balance, postural control, confidence of balance, and reducing fear of falling, but not gait speed. The most recommendable dose of VRBT is at least 40 sessions, five sessions per week, and 40-45 minutes per session for functional balance.

Feasibility and usability of a new home-based immersive virtual reality headset-based dexterity training in multiple sclerosis

Christian P. Kamm et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the feasibility, usability, and patient engagement/satisfaction of a home-based VR headset-based dexterity training in patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). The results showed that this training approach demonstrated good feasibility, usability, and patient engagement/satisfaction. Preliminary efficacy data suggested improvement in fine motor skills for the dominant hand.

Fitness, physical activity, and exercise in multiple sclerosis: a systematic review on current evidence for interactions with disease activity and progression

Sebastian Proschinger et al.

Summary: Exercise may improve certain clinical measures in patients with multiple sclerosis, but it is difficult to conclude a supportive disease-modifying effect. Existing studies have limitations such as low evidence quality and short intervention duration, highlighting the need for more high-quality research to evaluate the role of exercise in multiple sclerosis.

Effects of immersive virtual reality on upper limb function in subjects with multiple sclerosis: A cross-over study

Rita Bertoni et al.

Summary: The study investigated the feasibility and effects of an immersive commercial virtual reality system for upper limb bilateral rehabilitation in people with multiple sclerosis. The results showed improvement in gross manual dexterity in the less affected limb but did not translate into modifications in terms of self-reported ability or other outcomes.

The Design, Development, and Testing of a Virtual Reality Device for Upper Limb Training in People With Multiple Sclerosis: Single-Center Feasibility Study

Alon Kalron et al.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the safety and feasibility of using XRHealth software and the Oculus Rift Station for patients with MS and upper limb motor dysfunction. Results showed that most patients found the training sessions in the digital environment helpful, challenging, fun, and easy to understand, and they were willing to repeat the sessions. The majority of patients were found suitable for the training by physical therapists overseeing the sessions.
