Outline of Final Research Achievements

The present study aimed to establish the objective evaluation of movement representation in patients with deafferentation pain, additionally verify the effect and neural mechanism of rehabilitation with virtual reality system. The present study revealed that movement representation of affected hand correlated with deafferentation pain. The movement representation and deafferentation pain improved in parallel through the VR rehabilitation. These improvements would be brought from referencing sensorimotor information of intact hand in analyzing electroencephalogram.
