“…Interactive video games-also known as exergames-enable the individual to interact with the game by moving their limbs or the entire body. This feature presents a variety of applications in the field of medicine and rehabilitation 12 : the often boring and repetitive nature of rehabilitation exercises can be transformed into an activity (playing video games) that patients happily accept and that promotes greater entertainment and fun when performed 12 .…”

“…The fact that patients can continue to exercise with the aid of video games in their own home, even after hospital discharge, is an additional potential benefit to the use of technology during rehabilitation 12,20 ; video games can help physical therapists to remotely assess patients' adherence to therapy and monitor changes in functions over time 12 .…”

RESUMO Este estudo teve como objetivo a busca de registros com diferenças significativas a respeito da saúde física de pacientes com câncer ao praticarem exergames. Utilizou-se como método a Revisão Integrativa de Literatura com as palavras chaves “Fisioterapia”, “Realidade Virtual”, “Wii”, “Exergames” e “Câncer”, em português e inglês, nas bases de dados PubMed, Science Direct, Medline, Scopus, Lilacs, SciELO, PEDro, Cochrane e Periódicos Capes. Os critérios de inclusão foram: estudos que utilizassem exergames em tratamentos clínicos e que apresentassem diferenças sobre a saúde física de pacientes com diagnóstico de câncer, de ambos os sexos, de todas as idades e tipos de câncer, publicados nos últimos 10 anos, em qualquer idioma. Dos 3172 artigos encontrados, apenas nove foram incluídos, sendo que esses avaliaram: desempenho físico, sedentarismo, funcionalidade de membros superiores, força muscular de membros inferiores e fadiga. Concluiu-se que os exergames demostraram ser ferramenta promissora para a saúde física de pacientes com diagnóstico de câncer.

Telerehabilitation in older adults is most needed in the patient environments, rather than in formal ambulatories or hospitals. Supporting such practices brings significant advantages to patients, their family, formal and informal caregivers, clinicians, and researchers. Several techniques and technologies have been developed aiming at facilitating and enhancing the effectiveness of telerehabilitation. This paper gives a quick overview of the state of the art, investigating video-based, wearable, robotic, distributed, and gamified telerehabilitation solutions. In particular, agent-based solutions are analyzed and discussed addressing strength, limitations, and future challenges. Elaborating on functional requirements expressed by professional physiotherapists and researchers, the need for extending multi-agent systems (MAS) peculiarities at the sensing level in wearable solutions establishes new research challenges. Employed in cyber-physical scenarios with users-sensors and sensorssensors interactions, MAS are requested to handle timing constraints, scarcity of resources and new communication means, which are crucial for providing real-time feedback and coaching.
