In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This pilot study aims to evaluate the effect of a specfic Virtual-Reality-Based rehabilitation training in patients with stroke. A total of 38 patients with stroke (more than 6 months from the acute event), recruited from the services of the Fondazione Santa Lucia IRCCS in Rome, will be included in the present study. Participants will be randomized into two groups: a Real group and a Sham group. Both groups will undergo a rehabilitation intervention using an immersive virtual reality system. The Real group will be exposed to scenarios containing specific stimuli for the visuo-vestibular system, while the Sham group will be exposed to the same scenarios but without specific stimuli. All participants in both groups will undergo 12 treatment sessions (three times a week), each lasting 20 minutes. All treatments will be conducted by physiotherapists specialized in neurological and vestibular
