Sarcopenia Clinical Trial
Official title:
Efficacy of Virtual Reality Exercises on Sarcopenia in Patients With Liver Transplantation
This study will be conducted to investigate the effect of virtual reality exercises on hand grip strength, pinch strength, quadriceps muscle strength, exercise capacity, fatigue, and quality of life in patients with liver transplantation.
Liver transplantation (LT) continues to prove to be the best choice for curing patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD) . Management strategies in peri-transplantation care have significantly improved the outcomes of patients after LT. One of the most challenging tasks of LT is defining which patients are clinically appropriate for this therapy. Evaluating disease severity for patients with ESLD is a serious challenge for liver transplant surgeons, and there is a critical need for better methods of risk stratification. The most common complications involved include ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, and variceal bleeding; however, severe muscle wasting or sarcopenia is the most common and frequently undiagnosed complications that negatively impact survival, quality of life, and response to stressors, such as infections and surgeries. Virtual reality (VR) is an interactive, 3-dimensional computer experience occurring in real time. It allows the users to participate in multisensory and multidimensional virtual environments . It provides the participants with real-time auditory, visual, and proprioception sensory feedback. It also provides a safe virtual exercise environment. sixty patients with liver transplantation will be assigned randomly to two groups; experimental group will receive virtual reality exercise plus traditional therapy for six weeks, control group will receive traditional therapy alone for six weeks ;
