Summary

This study will combine virtual reality (VR) technology with machine learning to focus on functional movement. Patients' symptoms will be evaluated, and exercise instruction with real-time feedback will be provided. The goals of this research are to: (1) develop a waist digital sensor for real-time monitoring as an evaluation tool, (2) apply a real-time monitoring system in conjunction with virtual reality for telerehabilitation, and (3) develop the standard model.

Detailed description

The remote assessment and training in this study can assist patients obtaining physical therapy care at home. It is suitable for patients who avoid going to the hospital due to the epidemic, and solve the problem of long-term treatment. The outcomes will provide DLSD patients tele-rehabilitation platform and system, help medical personnel to treat patients more effectively in the future, and reduce the burden of medical costs on close ones.

Conditions

• Degenerative Lumbar Spine Diseases

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Core muscle training	Combining virtual reality technology and waist wearable sensors, training the pelvis and lumbar spine movements as the main training goal, it is estimated that two 1-hour training sessions per week, a total of 6 weeks of training, to improve the core muscle of patients with lumbar degenerative diseases muscle strength.
