Description
Jie Hao, Yao Yao, and Ka-Chun Siu published a systematic review in twenty twenty-six on extended reality in rehabilitation medicine. Virtual, augmented, and mixed reality promise therapy that is personal and engaging. The reviewers searched three databases for randomized trials and graded their quality with a standard physiotherapy scale.
Fifty-eight trials covered geriatric, neurological, orthopedic, and pediatric rehabilitation. Reality-based therapy improved motor and cognitive function, eased pain, and lifted mood and quality of life. Older adults gained balance and strength; stroke and nerve patients recovered movement and hurt less; children engaged more with their goals. The authors call the technology promising across rehabilitation, while noting trial quality varies.
