About
This document is intended to provide participant with information about a research study in which the participant is invited to participate. This study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of ______________________________. If the participant decide to participate, will receive personalized information from the investigator. Please read this document beforehand, and the investigator will ask you any questions you may have to understand the details. If the participant wish, the participant can take this document, review it with others, and take your time to decide whether or not to participate. Participation in this study is completely voluntary and free of charge. The participant can decide not to participate, participate, or change your mind by withdrawing your consent at any time during the project without giving any explanation. The investigators assure the participant that this decision will not affect any future participation with this research group. What is the purpose of the study? To analyze whether the use of a physical exercise program in immersive virtual environments (video games) has greater positive effects on Parkinson's symptoms than traditional rehabilitation programs. Why is the participant being offered to participate? The participant is invited to participate because the participant is a person diagnosed with Parkinson's and because, within the Open Science policies of the University of Vigo, the Galicia Sur Biomedical Foundation, and the Nóvoa Santos Foundation, where bringing research closer to the reality of patients is emphasized, the investigators have selected the specialized Parkinson's center of which the participant is a member to participate in this study.
What does the participation consist of? The participation consists of carrying out 2/3 sessions per week on alternate days of physical exercise, and depending on whether the participant belong to the control or experimental group, the participant will do it regularly or recreated with a video game. The duration of each session will be 15 minutes. Be part of one group or another will depend on chance (like throwing a coin in the air and it comes up Heads or Cross). The total duration of the intervention in both cases is 3 months. During the project, 2 evaluations will be carried out: Initial evaluation and final evaluation. In all of them they will be collected information in relation to their pharmacological treatment linked to the pathology, autonomy functional balance, gait and risk of falls, functional balance, symptoms and disease monitoring and quality of life. Furthermore, in the experimental group the usability and security of the tool will be evaluated immersive virtual reality used. All these assessments will be carried out in your proximity center on the agreed day and time to optimize said process and will have an approximate duration of 30 minutes.
What discomforts or inconveniences does the participation have? The participation requires travel to your reference center to carry out the study. This program, like any physical activity or exercise, may involve greater tiredness and/or musculo-articular discomfort due to the type of exercise to which you will be subjected.
No relevant adverse effects have been recorded in the use of immersive virtual environments (video games).
