Research indicates that inadequate physical recovery is associated with lower handgrip strength, and hand function in ICU patients is lower compared to healthy individuals. To address this, a Virtual Reality (VR) exergame was developed to aid rehabilitation. This study aims to investigate the effect of a 4-week VR-exergame intervention on handgrip strength, hand and arm functionality, balance, mobility, and support needs in ICU patients staying for 48 hours or longer. It is a multicenter mixed-methods randomized controlled trial involving adult ICU patients. The intervention involves a 4-week VR-exergame program. Main study parameters include handgrip strength, hand and arm functionality, range of motion, balance, mobility, and support needs. The burden and risks associate
