Abstract
This project explored the selection process of commercially available virtual reality (VR) games for traumatic brain injury rehabilitation. Occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) developed a classification framework that they used to evaluate VR games. The classification framework focused on movements required to effectively play the game, cognitive demand, position for game play, ease in menu navigation, and perceived therapeutic applications. OTPs used the ratings to aid in game selection and identified relevant game examples that allowed customizable settings and basic navigation with a game focus on functional activities. The OTPs and the research team identified the need for further work on accessibility and adaptability of game features (e.g., difficulty and limb usage) allowing for more individualization to optimize outcomes of VR-enhanced rehabilitation. The classification framework was useful in evaluating the potential therapeutic benefit of commercially available VR games. However, trial of the game by clinicians prior to use was still warranted.
