Effect of Virtual Reality on Upper Extremity Function Post-operative Rotator Cuff Repair

Rotator Cuff Tears Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Effect of Virtual Reality Intervention and Its Impact on Upper Extremity Function in Patients With Post-operative Rotator Cuff Repair

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the study is to investigate the effect and the impact of performing virtual reality intervention on upper extremity function in patients with post-operative rotator cuff repair. The main question that it aims to answer is: Does the application of virtual reality intervention improves upper extremity function in patients with post-operative rotator cuff repair. Participants will be randomized into 2 groups: the control group receiving conventional physical therapy intervention and the experimental group receiving the virtual reality intervention.

Clinical Trial Description

Rotator cuff tears are one of the most common disorders of the shoulder that result in shoulder pain and dysfunction. It affects about 30% of individuals that are older than 60 years. The conservative management is the first-line treatment for a rotator cuff tear, but a surgical rotator cuff repair (RCR) is required if the conservative management failed. Post-operative rehabilitation requires up to 12 weeks. But, Virtual Reality (VR) intervention is emerging as a viable alternative for musculoskeletal rehabilitation of the upper limb. Unlike in neuro-rehabilitation, VR is still poorly used in orthopedic rehabilitation. Thus, the investigators hypothesize that performing virtual reality intervention will improve the upper extremity function in patients with post-operative rotator cuff repair. ;
