“…The improvement in mental wellbeing of the gaming residents was in accordance with ndings in comparable research [4]. It is unclear if this effect is due to exergaming or to the mere impact of a new activity [12]. Indeed, the gaming residents particularly appreciated the social contacts and the grind breaking impact of this very new game.…”

Background To improve quality of life in nursing homes, meaningful activities and social contact are indispensable. Exergames can play a role addressing these needs. Methods In a randomized single blinded controlled intervention study, we investigated the effect of playing exergames on general well-being, fun and on social interaction. Results Eighteen residents took part in the intervention group and 17 in the control group. The median mental well-being score of the intervention group increased from 42/50 to 45. The median sleep score of the intervention increased from 23/30 to 28. The median pain score of the intervention group improved from18/20 to 20. The median score on subjective cognition increased from 24/30 to 26 while the mean scores on the objective assessment decreased from 1.8/2 to 1.7. Coaches gave an average fun score of 8.9/10 and an average intensity of exercise score of 11.6/20. Residents and coaches appreciated the social contact. Coaches reported a high feasibility (average of 4.1/5) but a low accessibility and a high intensity of supervision. Conclusions Exergaming is a feasibly complement to the usual activities. Future research should focus on vulnerable groups and aim to develop a study in an implementation design.

Introduction To improve the quality of life in nursing homes, meaningful activities and social contact are indispensable. Exergames can play a role addressing these needs. Methods In a randomized single blinded controlled intervention study, we investigated the effect of playing exergames on general wellbeing, fun and on social interaction. Results Thirty-five residents participated: 18 residents took part in the intervention group and 17 in the control group. The median mental wellbeing score of the intervention group increased from 42/50 to 45. The median sleep score of the intervention increased from 23/30 to 28. The median pain score of the intervention group improved from 18/20 to 20. The median score on subjective cognition increased from 24/30 to 26 while the mean scores on the objective assessment decreased from 1.8/2 to 1.7. Coaches gave an average fun score of 8.9/10 and an average intensity of exercise score of 11.6/20. Residents and coaches appreciated the social contact. Coaches reported a high feasibility (average of 4.1/5) but a low accessibility and a high intensity of supervision. Conclusions Exergaming is a feasible and pleasant complement to the usual activities with a positive impact on wellbeing, sleep, pain, and perceived cognition. Future research should focus on vulnerable groups and aim to develop a study in an implementation design.

“…Participants in board games meet face to face to discuss based on the games' content. Some patients with dementia will increase their interest in communicating with others during the games, and tangible props will also increase their hands' flexibility [21]. Whittam et al [22] used a board game called Burns in their research, which contains a folding board.…”

Medical operations(MOs) are essential in healthcare, and they are also a big concept that includes various operations during the perioperative period. Traditional operation exposes its limitations during the perioperative period, reflected in medical training, surgical preparation, and postoperative rehabilitation. Serious Games for Medical Operation (SGMO) offer new ways and complementary solutions to support MOs. Methods: As a review, this paper analyzes the development of SGMO and considers various aspects of the SGMO, such as interface, functions, and technologies. Results and conclusion: By combining MO and serious games' characteristics, the paper classifies SGMO and analyzes their features and functions for different groups of users and at various stages of the perioperative period (before, during, and after an MO). Interactive technologies used in SGMO are presented from a visual, haptic, and auditory perspective. Significance: This paper reviews the development of SGMO, summarizes its functions and technologies. Besides, it presents representative products and suggests future research directions.
