Abstract

Cervical spine mobility assessment is crucial in rehabilitation to monitor patient progress. This study introduces the DidRen VR test, a virtual reality (VR) adaptation of the conventional DidRen laser test, aimed at evaluating cervical spine mobility.

We conducted a cross-sectional study involving fifty healthy participants that underwent the DidRen VR test. The satisfaction of Fitts' law within this VR adaptation was examined and we analyzed the effects of age and sex on the sensorimotor performance metrics.

Our findings confirm that Fitts' law is satisfied, demonstrating a predictable relationship between movement time and the index of difficulty, which suggest that the DidRen VR test can simulate real-world conditions. A clear influence of age and sex on performance was observed, highlighting significant differences in movement efficiency and accuracy across demographics, which may necessitate personalized assessment strategies in clinical rehabilitation practices.

The DidRen VR test presents an effective tool for assessing cervical spine mobility, validated by Fitts' law. It offers a viable alternative to real-world method, providing precise control over test conditions and enhanced engagement for participants. Since age and sex significantly affect sensorimotor performance, personalized assessments are essential. Further research is recommended to explore the applicability of the DidRen VR test in clinical settings and among patients with neck pain.

评估颈椎活动度和是否符合菲特定律:根据年龄和性别影响改编的虚拟现实 DidRen 激光测试
颈椎活动度评估是康复治疗中监测患者进展的关键。本研究介绍了DidRen VR测试,它是对传统DidRen激光测试的虚拟现实(VR)改编,旨在评估颈椎活动度。我们进行了一项横断面研究,50名健康参与者接受了DidRen VR测试。我们的研究结果证实了菲茨定律的适用性,证明了运动时间和难度指数之间存在可预测的关系,这表明 DidRen VR 测试可以模拟真实世界的条件。我们观察到年龄和性别对测试成绩的明显影响,这凸显了不同人群在运动效率和准确性上的显著差异,这可能需要在临床康复实践中采取个性化的评估策略。 DidRen VR 测试是评估颈椎活动度的有效工具,并得到了菲茨定律的验证。DidRen VR 测试是评估颈椎活动度的有效工具,已通过菲茨定律验证。它为真实世界方法提供了一个可行的替代方案,可对测试条件进行精确控制,并提高参与者的参与度。由于年龄和性别对感觉运动表现有很大影响,因此个性化评估至关重要。建议进一步开展研究,探索 DidRen VR 测试在临床环境和颈部疼痛患者中的适用性。

期刊介绍: Human Movement Science provides a medium for publishing disciplinary and multidisciplinary studies on human movement. It brings together psychological, biomechanical and neurophysiological research on the control, organization and learning of human movement, including the perceptual support of movement. The overarching goal of the journal is to publish articles that help advance theoretical understanding of the control and organization of human movement, as well as changes therein as a function of development, learning and rehabilitation. The nature of the research reported may vary from fundamental theoretical or empirical studies to more applied studies in the fields of, for example, sport, dance and rehabilitation with the proviso that all studies have a distinct theoretical bearing. Also, reviews and meta-studies advancing the understanding of human movement are welcome. These aims and scope imply that purely descriptive studies are not acceptable, while methodological articles are only acceptable if the methodology in question opens up new vistas in understanding the control and organization of human movement. The same holds for articles on exercise physiology, which in general are not supported, unless they speak to the control and organization of human movement. In general, it is required that the theoretical message of articles published in Human Movement Science is, to a certain extent, innovative and not dismissible as just "more of the same."
