Effect of Intervention of Somatosensory Interaction (Kinect) on Post-stroke Depression
Abstract:Objective To observe the effect of somatosensory interactive technology of Kinect on post-stroke depression (PSD). Meth-ods 60 patients with PSD were divided into control group (n=30) and experimental group (n=30), who accepted routine rehabilitation and Kinect in addition, respectively. They were assessed with Zung's Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) before and 4 weeks after intervention. Results The scores of SDS was (43.25±10.11) in the experimental group, which was less than that in the control group (55.67±8.80) after in-tervention (P<0.01). Conclusion Rehabilitation with somatosensory interactive technology of Kinect may improve the efficiency on PSD.
