EFFECTIVENESS OF VR TRAINING IN ACCELERATING THE RECOVERY OF PATIENTS WITH SUBACROMIAL IMPINGEMENT SYNDROME: A COMPREHENSIVE STATISTICAL ANALYSIS

Abstract
Abstract - This study aimed to evaluate the impact of virtual reality training on the recovery process of patients with subacromial impingement syndrome. The study involved a sample size of 288 participants, evenly distributed between a control group and an experimental group. The control group received conventional physical therapy treatment, while the experimental group underwent daily virtual reality training sessions. A continuous enrollment protocol was used to maximize participant inclusion throughout the study and to optimize data analysis. Data were collected by administering the “pain arc test” at the beginning and end of each training session. Data were analyzed using statistical software (SciPy, R) along with relevant packages. This study implemented an innovative approach by continuously enrolling participants to increase the size of the database and increase the statistical power of the research. Combining strategic planning, technology, and creative procedural adjustments, this study sets a precedent for future rehabilitation research in patients with subacromial impingement syndrome.
