Challenges and promises of mixed-reality interventions in acquired brain injury rehabilitation: A scoping review.

Background: Acquired brain injury (ABI) can lead to significant impairments and difficulties in everyday life, necessitating the need for rehabilitation. Mixed-reality (MR) technologies have revolutionized the delivery of neurorehabilitation therapies. However, inconsistencies in research methodology, diverse study populations and designs, and exaggerated claims in the research, media, and private consumer sectors have impacted the knowledge base of the field, including within the context of ABI rehabilitation.
