Abstract | Purpose: To investigate the acceptability and user experience of an in-hospital endurance training program based on the Virtual Park, a semi-immersive Virtual Reality (VR) system for patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Results: Fourteen patients (6 F/8 M; age = 71.29 ± 6.93 years) with mild/moderate COPD participated. The adherence rate was satisfying: 85.71% of patients attended the program without adverse events; the individual attendance rate (86.85% ± 27.43) was also high. The exercise capacity assessed before and after the training significantly improved in our group (6MWT pre-post: t(11)= -5.040, Conclusions: Our preliminary results open the possibility for further investigations on long-term motivation and clinical effectiveness of more immersive VR interventions for COPD. |
