The use of serious games is more and more popular in the medical filed, mainly for home-based rehabilitation therapy. In this context, some design principles were already proposed. Designing serious game for evolution diseases assessment is challenging and necessitates a new approach of this principles. Working with physiotherapists at the origin of the Motor Function Measurement assessment scale, the development of a dedicated serious game is proposed based on new contextual principles.
Patients with neuromuscular diseases undergo frequent motor assessments. The MFM scale (Motor Function Measure) is a validated scale for all neuromuscular diseases. Tasks 18, 19, and 22 have the potential to have a digitized version on a Tablet. This article proposes to digitalize a first version of items 18, 19 and 22 based on MFM. The results show that the scores were similar for the Tablet version and the paper version.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
