“…It is possible to observe that the insertion of a SG is of fundamental importance, therefore, if used in the right way, it can provide more playful and less tedious recovery processes. The following studies present answers to questions 01, 02 and 03 of the review (Pinto et al, 2018).…”

“…Study A30 reports that SGs have specific purposes since the player uses their knowledge to solve some problem or train a specific task. The application of SG in healthcare can benefit from this method and develop serious games or SG-type systems, which is not only a means of experience and knowledge, but also a means of active learning (Pinto et al, 2018).…”

“…Serious games have significant advantages such as completing challenges. In this sense also, the acquisition of information becomes easier, as well as the promotion of teamwork, recreation of complex clinical situations, and feedback to learn from mistakes (Pinto et al, 2018).…”

“…Still on the subject of using SG for teaching, study A30 shows the training of healthcare professionals through graphical simulations using serious games. The goal was to develop a prototype for simulating hospital environments and medical training, recreating several clinical situations: in-hospital, pre-hospital, and transport environments (Pinto et al, 2018). The platform developed was flexible and sought to meet what had been previously mentioned focusing mainly on emergency or critical cases that needed team training.…”

It is noticeable that more and more medical professionals have been searching for strategies to keep people engaged both in the recovery processes (cognitive or physical) and in the teaching part. It is possible to observe that the insertion of Serious Games has been offering this innovative possibility, which allows the development of new possibilities for several areas of knowledge. This study aims to carry out a review on the use of Serious Games in Medicine, exploring how the method has been used. The methodology used was a systematic review. Articles published from 2015 to 2020 in indexed in three databases such as IEEE, Scopus, Scielo, among others, were searched. If used correctly, the Serious Games can help in the rehabilitation process of patients affected by some sequelae caused by stroke (CVA - Cerebral Vascular Accident), and also in the rehabilitation process of people with degenerative problems. It was also possible to observe that SG can be used as motivating and engaging tools for medical students.

The prevention of falls in older adults is an issue that can only be solved with regular exercises, sometimes with the supervision of therapists. This paper presents a game framework that uses devices such as the Wii Balance Board (WBB) to replicate fall-prevention programs, such as the Otago Exercise Programme. The objective is to increase the adherence of senior users to these exercises, while increasing their autonomy by enabling them to conduct unsupervised games. Two interactive games were developed and tested using the WBB and other available devices such as smartphones. The main contribution of this paper is the proposal of several metrics for exergames for the elderly and the combination of digital games with fall-prevention exercises and automatic balance measures based on Centre of Pressure (COP) tracking.
