Virtual Reality Mediated Upper Extremity rehabilitationPatients With Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral palsy (CP) refers to a group of permanent disorders that occur in the brain of the fetus or infant, which are non-progressive, cause movement and posture disorder along with activity limitation.

The upper extremity is frequently affected in patients with CP. The prevalence of upper extremity involvement has been reported between 60-83% in different studies.

Virtual reality applications have been increasing recently in the field of neurological rehabilitation. In this study, researchers aimed to investigate the effectiveness of virtual reality-mediated upper extremity rehabilitation in patients with hemiplegic cerebral palsy.
