Motor and Cognitive Telerehabilitation in a Virtual Environment in Patients With Post-stroke Sequelae and Parkinson's Disease

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Ictus, Stroke, Parkinson Disease

In brief

The goal of this interventional pilot trial is to evaluate whether a telerehabilitation protocol based on immersive virtual reality (VR) is effective and feasible for the recovery of cognitive and/or motor functions in patients with sequelae of ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke or with Parkinson's disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the VR-based telerehabilitation protocol improve cognitive and/or motor outcomes compared to conventional rehabilitation? * Is the protocol feasible, defined as ≥80% adherence among participants? Is the system acceptable and user-friendly from the patient's perspective? Researchers will compare an interventional arm receiving telerehabilitation via an immersive VR home kit with a control arm receiving conventional rehabilitation according to standard clinical practice. Both groups will receive the same number of sessions, with the same duration and weekly frequency. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline (T0), after 4 weeks of treatment (T1), and at 3-month follow-up (T2).
