“…In some studies, the score obtained or time taken, act as an index of performance and is related to motor skills. For example, in the serious game Good View Hunting [46] the participant is asked to remove the dirty regions of the screen or to clean a water stain, fog, children's drawings or car dust using the affected limb.…”

Introduction: This review article is the product of research on the methods, techniques and devices used in the measurement of fine motor skills of upper limbs and its respective evolution, developed at Universidad del Cauca in 2018. Problem: Objective measurement of the evolution of upper limb motor skills in the rehabilitation processes. Objective: To identify the conventional techniques and electronic devices used in the measurement of the evolution of upper limb motor ability. Methodology: Four scientific databases were reviewed in addition to the Google Scholar search engine. The keywords used for the search were: "fine motor skills", "hand measurement", "hand rehabilitation"and "hand function", among others. Results: Approximately 3840 articles related to the subject were found. When applying the exclusion criteria, the article number to be revised was reduced to 63, which were analyzed in the present review. Conclusions: The tools applied by health professionals are convenient due to their rapid execution and easy access, however they can be subject to human error since they depend on the experience of the user. Electronic systems present objective measurements, however, their complexity and cost are high. Originality: This work presents information on the therapeutic techniques and technological devices used, in certain pathologies, for the evaluation of upper limb motor ability. Limitations: Not all articles analyzed have a detailed description of the people in which the studies were conducted.

Background: Virtual reality therapy (VRT) is an interactive intervention that induces neuroplasticity. The aim was to evaluate the effects of VRT associated with conventional rehabilitation for an upper limb after stroke, and the neuroimaging predictors of a better response to VRT. Methods: Patients with stroke were selected, and clinical neurological, upper limb function, and quality of life were evaluated. Statistical analysis was performed using a linear model comparing pre- and post-VRT. Lesions were segmented in the post-stroke computed tomography. A voxel-based lesion-symptom mapping approach was used to investigate the relationship between the lesion and upper limb function. Results: Eighteen patients were studied (55.5 ± 13.9 years of age). Quality of life, functional independence, and dexterity of the upper limb showed improvement after VRT (p < 0.001). Neuroimaging analysis showed negative correlations between the internal capsule lesion and functional recovery. Conclusion: VRT showed benefits for patients with stroke, but when there was an internal capsule lesion, a worse response was observed.

“…However, the approach remains mostly reserved to specialized facilities, and consequently is available for limited amounts of time for a limited number of patients. In an attempt to cover the needs for affordable home rehabilitation, gaming class motion sensors and systems have been adapted to "serious games" -e.g., Nintendo Wii ® (Nintendo) [10], Playstation EyeToy ® (Sony) [11,12], Xbox 360/XboxOne ® (Microsoft) [13]. Although the sensation they provide is less realistic (as the avatar of the user is usually placed inside the virtual environment -system put the user inside the computer instead of projecting the generated environment around him), these systems do provide some of the features that constitute the theoretical basis of the approach [14].…”

We present the results of a feasibility study for the use of a commercially available non-immersive virtual reality system (SeeMe®) in upper limb motor rehabilitation of stroke survivors. The study included 8 chronic phase stroke survivors. All patients received 12 sessions with the system over 2 weeks, each session comprising 20 minutes of motor training using a sequence of 8 serious games. Outcome measures included the Fugl-Meyer assessment scale -upper limb section (FMA), the Stroke Impact Scale (SIS), the ingame assessment procedure of the SeeMe system and a feedback questionnaire. Following the rehabilitation program, we found no change on the clinical scales. Although some of the system generated parameters (score, endurance and reaction time or movement amplitude for each game) have improved significantly, in 3 of the 8 games none of the recorded variables has shown significant changes, with only one game showing significant improvement in 2 out of 3 parameters. The satisfaction questionnaire did not generally correlate with game performance (although this has happened in some of the games), but reflected correctly the increased interest of the subjects for the intervention and also their awareness of its real influence on motor abilities. This initial pilot study indicates that the SeeMe virtual reality system has the potential to be of use in clinical settings as a complement to conventional therapy. Future studies should include larger number of subjects, longer training duration, use more sensitive/dedicated measurements of improvement, and focus on a single game/exercise type.
