Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: virtual reality exercise
the patients will receive virtual reality and conventional therapy three times a week for six weeks
|
after explaining the treatment method for patients, the patients will perform full body aerobic exercise by applying kick boxing to destroy walls of rock; the patient moves most of body muscles in this game.
He or she flex and extend the shoulder and the elbow with flexion and extension in the knee.
squatting exercise, endurance exercise, coordination for arm and shoulder exercise will also performed in virtual reality
the patients will receive conventional treatment in the form of aerobic exercise, resistance exercise and endurance exercise.
|
Experimental: conventional treatment
the patients will receive conventional treatment three times a week for six weeks
|
the patients will receive conventional treatment in the form of aerobic exercise, resistance exercise and endurance exercise.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Hand grip strength
Time Frame: up to six weeks
|
JAMAR hand grip dynamometer will be used to measure hand grip strength
|
up to six weeks
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Pinch strength
Time Frame: up to six weeks
|
JAMAR Pinch grip dynamometer will be used to measure pinch strength
|
up to six weeks
|
Respiratory function
Time Frame: up to six weeks
|
spirometry will be used to measure the the ratio of forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) to forced vital capacity (FVC)
|
up to six weeks
|
Fatigue
Time Frame: up to six weeks
|
Arabic version of fatigue severity scale will be used to measure fatigue.
It consists of 9 items , patients score each item from 1 to 7, based on the extent, to which they agree or disagree with each statement (1 = strong disagreement, 7 = strong agreement).
The FSS can be scored either by obtaining a total score, or by calculating a mean score across all 9 items, with higher scores indicating more severe fatigue.
|
up to six weeks
|
life disability
Time Frame: up to six weeks
|
The World Health Organization Quality of Life - BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) will be used to assess quality of life.The WHOQOL-BREF is a 26-item instrument consisting of four domains: physical health (7 items), psychological health (6 items), social relationships (3 items), and environmental health (8 items); it also contains QOL and general health items.
Each individual item of the WHOQOL-BREF is scored from 1 to 5 on a response scale, which is stipulated as a five-point ordinal scale.
The scores are then transformed linearly to a 0-100-scale.
|
up to six weeks
|
exercise capacity
Time Frame: up to six weeks
|
six minute walk test will be used to assess the exercise capacity.The 6-minute walk test requires a subject to walk as far as he or she can in 6 minutes, with rests as needed.
|
up to six weeks
|
quadriceps strength
Time Frame: up to six weeks
|
hand-held dynamometer (HHD) ( Lafayette Instrument Company, USA) will be used to assess quadriceps strength.
it is a reliable strength testing equipment.
It is a portable device that can be used to obtain more discrete, objective measures of strength during manual muscle testing
|
up to six weeks
