“…Also, improvements were seen in reported health status and the quality of life. 23 In our previous study, we examined the effectiveness of video-based game exercise programs in rotator cuff injuries and reported that video-based game exercises improved pain, functionality and quality of life parameters. Three groups (a conventional exercise group, a structured closed kinetic chain exercise group, and a video-based game exercise group) were rehabilitated and the results showed that video-based game exercise group has better pain, functionality and quality of life parameters.…”

The use of technological rehabilitation as a comp-lementary approach has gained popularity in recent years. This study aimed to create serious games for shoulder rehabilitation and investigate their impact on patients with rotator cuff rupture in terms of pain, range of motion, joint position sense, and approxima-tion force. Additionally, it aimed to showcase the collaboration between physiotherapists and engineers in developing technological rehabilitation software. The study involved 20 patients with rotator cuff rup-ture who underwent the Serious-Game Exercise (SGE) program twice a week for six weeks. All individuals were assessed before and after the treatment, and the results showed significant differences in all measured parameters (p

“…A previous study on the balance and gait of older adults using the Nintendo Wii Fit board showed results similar to those of this study [ 23 ]. These studies have reported the effectiveness of video games for fall prevention and musculoskeletal health management in older adults [ 23 , 24 , 27 ].…”

“…These programs have been widely used as evaluation or rehabilitation tools for individuals with cognitive impairment due to neurological diseases, such as Parkinson’s disease and stroke, and patients with chronic back pain; however, older adults often have difficulties in using technology [ 25 , 26 , 27 ]. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a home-based exergame program on physical function, fall efficacy, depression, and quality of life in older adults.…”

This study aimed to investigate the effects of home-based exergame programs on physical function, fall efficacy, depression, and health-related quality of life in community-dwelling older adults. Fifty-seven participants aged 75 years or older were divided into control and experimental groups. The experimental group received a home-based exergame program that included balance and lower-extremity muscle strength for 8 weeks. The participants exercised at home for 50 min three times a week and were monitored through a video-conference application. Both groups received online education on musculoskeletal health once a week, whereas the control group did not exercise. Physical function was assessed using the one-leg standing test (OLST), Berg balance scale (BBS), functional reaching test (FRT), timed up-and-go test (TUGT), and five-times sit-to-stand (FTSTS). Fall efficacy was assessed using the modified falls efficacy scale (MFES). Depression was assessed using the geriatric depression scale (GDS). Health-related quality of life was assessed using a 36-item short-form health survey (SF-36). The experimental group showed an overall improvement in OLST, BBS, FRT, TUGT, and FTSTS (p < 0.05). MFES was significantly increased in the experimental group after the intervention (p < 0.05). The GDS significantly decreased in the experimental group after the intervention (p < 0.05). In SF-36, role limitations due to physical health, general health, and fatigue (energy and fatigue) items improved in the experimental group after intervention (p < 0.05). An 8-week home-based exergame program improved physical function, fall efficacy, depression, and health-related quality of life in older adults. The study was registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05802537).

“…These interactive platforms offer engaging and enjoyable experiences for patients, motivating them to actively participate in their rehabilitation programs. By incorporating elements of gamification, telerehabilitation platforms can enhance patient engagement and adherence to prescribed exercises, leading to improved outcomes [ 15 , 16 ]. Serious games can address cultural and contextual factors by offering localized content and incorporating culturally relevant narratives and characters [ 17 ].…”

Telemonitoring and telerehabilitation have shown promise in delivering individualized healthcare remotely. We introduce STASISM, a sensor-based telerehabilitation and telemonitoring system, in this work. This platform has been created to facilitate individualized telerehabilitation and telemonitoring for those who need rehabilitation or ongoing monitoring. To gather and analyze pertinent and validated physiological, kinematic, and environmental data, the system combines a variety of sensors and data analytic methodologies. The platform facilitates customized rehabilitation activities based on individual needs, allows for the remote monitoring of a patient’s progress, and offers real-time feedback. To protect the security of patient data and to safeguard patient privacy, STASISM also provides secure data transmission and storage. The platform has the potential to significantly improve the accessibility and efficacy of telerehabilitation and telemonitoring programs, enhancing patients’ quality of life and allowing healthcare professionals to provide individualized care outside of traditional clinical settings.
