The use of technological rehabilitation as a comp-lementary approach has gained popularity in recent years. This study aimed to create serious games for shoulder rehabilitation and investigate their impact on patients with rotator cuff rupture in terms of pain, range of motion, joint position sense, and approxima-tion force. Additionally, it aimed to showcase the collaboration between physiotherapists and engineers in developing technological rehabilitation software. The study involved 20 patients with rotator cuff rup-ture who underwent the Serious-Game Exercise (SGE) program twice a week for six weeks. All individuals were assessed before and after the treatment, and the results showed significant differences in all measured parameters (p<0.05). The study concluded that SGE is an effective therapy for patients with rotator cuff rupture, and serious games can be a viable alternative therapeutic approach.

Fizyoterapist ve Mühendis İş Birliği ile Rehabilitasyon Yazılımının Geliştirilmesi: Omuz Rehabilitasyonu Pilot Çalışması

Öz

Teknolojik rehabilitasyon, son yıllarda popüler olan tamamlayıcı yaklaşımlardan biridir. Bu çalış-manın amacı omuz rehabilitasyonu için serious oyun-larının oluşturulması ve omuza yönelik tasarlanan bu oyunların rotator cuff rüptürü olan bireylerde ağrı, eklem hareket açıklığı, eklem pozisyon hissi ve ap-roksimasyon kuvveti üzerindeki etkisini incelemektir. Ayrıca fizyoterapistler ve mühendislerin iş birliği ile teknolojik rehabilitasyon yazılımlarının oluşturulması amaçlandı. Çalışmaya rotator cuff rüptürü olan 20 hasta dahil edildi. Katılımcılar 6 hafta boyunca haf-tada iki kez omuz rehabilitasyonu için geliştirilen seri-ous oyun egzersiz programına alındı. Tedavi öncesi ve sonrası tüm bireylerin ağrı şiddeti, fleksiyon, ab-duksiyon ve eksternal rotasyon eklem hareket açıklı-ğı, eklem pozisyon hissi ve aproksimasyon kuvveti değerlendirildi. Grubun tedavi öncesi ve sonrası tüm değerlendirme parametrelerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark vardı (p<0,05). Omuz rehabilitasyonu için serious oyun egzersiz programının rotator cuff rüptürü olan bireylerde etkili olduğu ve alternatif bir terapatik strateji olarak serious oyunlarının kullanıla-bileceği bulunmuştur.
