| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Self-estimated and actual range of motions (ROMs) have been identified as an important risk factor for an inability to perform upper extremity functional tasks in patients with wrist fractures. The purpose of this study was to develop the virtual reality (VR) training system which facilitates the motor imagery for fractured hand, to investigate facilitation of corticospinal excitability during the VR training, and to identify the time course of changes in self-estimated and actual ROMs and upper extremity functions associated with the VR training. The results of this study implied that corticospinal excitability was increased during VR training, that the self-estimated and actual ROMs and upper extremity functions changed over the course of training period and reached a plateau that fitted an exponential function, and that the improvement of self-estimated ROM occurred earlier than actual ROM and upper extremity functions during VR training.
