Experience from Kremenchuk: How VR Vitalis® Awakens the Desire to Exercise in Veterans and Patients
Testing Results: Regional Clinical Hospital for War Veterans, Kremenchuk
Between July and August 2024, an evaluation of the VR Vitalis® system's effectiveness was conducted at the Kremenchuk Regional Hospital for War Veterans (Ukraine). A total of 94 patients were monitored across two primary groups: patients with upper limb injuries and post-stroke patients.
Overview of Results by Diagnosis:
Hand Injuries and Fine Motor Skills (66 patients, aged 18–55):
98.5% positive outcomes (65 patients showed clear improvement).
Only 1 patient showed no change; 0% negative outcomes.
Cerebrovascular Accident / Stroke (28 patients, aged 56–80):
89.3% positive outcomes (25 patients with significant progress).
3 patients showed no change; 0% negative outcomes.
Overall, more than 95% of all monitored patients achieved measurable improvement through the integration of virtual reality into their rehabilitation process.
Why VR Vitalis® Works Better Than Conventional Drill Exercises
Rehabilitation for hand injuries and post-stroke recovery requires an immense number of repetitions. Traditional mechanical exercises often become repetitive and exhausting over time. Virtual reality introduces gamification, immediate feedback, and natural motivation, driving patients to actively seek out therapy sessions on their own.
"We are deeply grateful for the development of this technology. Throughout its use, we witnessed our patients actively strive for positive progress, as it differs significantly from mechanical exercises. Overall, no negative outcomes were observed."
— Mykola Lytvynenko, Director of the Kremenchuk Hospital for War Veterans
