Restorative Care01:19

Restorative Care

Restorative care is provided once a patient has been discharged from a healthcare facility and requires additional services. The additional services include home care, rehabilitation programs, and extended care. Restorative care centers help the patient regain their previous level of functioning or acquire a new level of functioning due to the incapacitating effects of a disease or a disability. It aims to assist patients in enhancing their quality of life by encouraging independence,...

Area of Science:

  • Rehabilitation Medicine
  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Phenomenology

Background:

  • Lower leg amputation presents unique challenges in regaining bodily perception and function.
  • Virtual rehabilitation offers novel approaches to address these challenges.

Observation:

  • A 32-year veteran with a lower leg amputation participated in a virtual rehabilitation program.
  • Semi-structured interviews were conducted and analyzed using interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA).

Findings:

  • Initially, the participant viewed his body as an object requiring careful handling.
  • With training, he moved more spontaneously, developing trust in the virtual environment through understanding its mechanical interaction with his movements.
  • The virtual environment facilitated body reintegration by encouraging automatic movement and a rational view of the body.

Implications:

  • Technological explanations and explicit feedback within virtual environments can enhance rehabilitation.
  • Virtual environments can facilitate the process of re-inserting the body into lived experience for amputees.
  • Fostering trust in technology can lead to increased trust in one's own body during rehabilitation.
