Virtual reality for elderly with psychomotor disadaptation
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests if using virtual reality can help older adults who have trouble moving and adapting to their surroundings (psychomotor disadaptation syndrome). It aims to improve their care while in a hospital geriatric unit.
