Biomedical Serious Game System for Balance Rehabilitation of Hemiparetic Stroke Patients.

Hemiparetic stroke patients can have several muscular and postural disorders which compromise their balance. Serious games (SG) emerged as a new approach to enhance conventional treatment by making it a motivating method to meet individual needs. This paper evaluated the therapeutic effects of a biomedical SG system developed for balance evaluation and training of hemiparetic stroke patients.
