An interventional study of Rehabilitation treatment and Virtual Reality games in Wrist Injury, sponsored by University of Malaga. Not yet recruiting. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2025-02-20.
Sponsored by University of Malaga · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare how the incorporation of Virtual Reality could influence in proprioception, kinesiophobia, functionality and catastrophism in people that are undergoing a rehabilitation treatment after a wrist fracture. The principal questions it aims to answer are:
Intervention will be:
Researchers will compare control and experimental group to see if an implantation of Virtual Reality could had benefits on function, kinesiophobia, catastrofism and proprioception.

Proprioception
Assessment of proprioception impairment using Joint Position Sense Test (JPST). Punctuation will be the difference between the asked position and the patient's replication. The test will be repeated with open and closed eyes.
Time frame: Baseline, 1 and 3 months
Kinesiophobia
Fear of movement, assessed with Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK) which has 17 items with Likert's answers. Punctuation goes from 17 to 68 points, where \<37 points means a low level of kinesiophobia and \>37 a high level.
Time frame: Baseline, 1 and 3 months
Catastrophism
Catastrophizing pain assessed with Pain Catasthrophizing Scale (PCS) which has 13 items with Likert's answers. Punctuation goes from 0 to 52 points, where 0-20 points means a low catastrophism, 21-30 points moderate catastrophism and \>30 points a high catastrophism.
Time frame: Baseline, 1 and 3 months
Function
Functionality of the upper limb assessed with QuickDASH which has 11 items. Punctuation goes from 0 to 100, where 0 means no disability and 100 maximum disability.
Time frame: Baseline, 1 and 3 months
Hand and Wrist function
Assessed with Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE) which has 15 items punctuated from 0 to 10. Punctuation goes from 0-100 where 0 means no disability and 100 maximum disability.
Time frame: Baseline, 1 and 3 months
Range of motion
Range of motion of the wrist and fingers using a goniometer.
Time frame: Baseline, 1 and 3 months
Force Sense
GRIP's force sense assessed with Force Sense Test (FST), where punctuation is the difference between the asked and replicated force.
Time frame: Baseline, 1 and 3 months
