This study is a usability design with qualitative and quantitative aspects. In one part,
with patients, physical strain and designs facets will be investigated and in another part
with physiotherapists, the therapeutic relevance and design features will be explored.
For this reasons 13-15 elderly people have to play an exergame, during their game playing
process, different measurements will be done. Additional 13-15 physiotherapists will also
playing the exergame, they will be asked about their opinions about the game.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Change of Heart Rate | 1 day | Yes | |
Primary | Rate of Perceived Exertion | 1 day | Yes | |
Primary | Change of the Body Part Discomfort Scale | 1 day | Yes | |
Primary | How many percent of the needed steps are fulfilled (Task Analysis) | The task analysis will be done, while a Patient oder a Physiotherapist is playing the exergame. For a Task Analysis every single step, that the proband has to do is defined, e.g. press the green start button. The investigator will observe how many from the used steps the proband can do by himself. If the proband needs help, the investigator will help him and notice on which step the proband struggled. | 1 day | Yes |
Secondary | User Questionnaire | Acceptance and opinions about the exergame from the users (elderly people and physiotherapist),will be asked after playing the game with a questionnaire. | 2 day | Yes |
