The Effect of a Virtual Reality-Mediated Gamified Rehabilitation Program on Pain, Disability, Function, and Balance in Knee Osteoarthritis: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Study

In knee OA, the disease-specific gamification through VR glasses added to the conservative treatment has a positive effect on pain, functionality, and balance. Side effects such as mild nausea, headache that did not last long, require additional treatment. In light of this, disease-specific gamification through VR glasses is effective and safe in knee OA, more studies that reveal the long-term effect on structural healing must be planned.
