This is a descriptive study assessing the feasibility of using VR rehabilitation with unilateral (or bilateral) impairment of the arm, wrist and or hand resulting in reduced range of motion, dexterity, and/or strength of the hand.
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of using a virtual reality program to monitor and encourage compliance with musculoskeletal home exercise programs. It hypothesizes that the treatment will display improved compliance, range of motion, and general function for individuals with upper extremity musculoskeletal deficits.
The primary objectives are to: 1. Describe participant compliance with an immersive game-based virtual reality (VR) rehabilitation device for delivering at-home occupational therapy exercises for the wrist and hand in individuals with motor impairments. 2. Describe and compare functional outcomes among participants before and after completing at-home rehabilitation using the VR system.
These objective outcomes will be measured through various standardized tests completed by qualified study team members.
