Study problem: What is the impact of virtual reality after a traumatic brain injury? Study object: Virtual reality after traumatic brain injury. Aim of the study: To evaluate the impact of virtual reality after traumatic brain injury. Tasks of study: 1. Analysis of the scientific literature on traumatic brain injury, about physiotherapy treatment and the use of virtual reality. 2. To analyze the effect of virtual reality on balance and gait. 3. To analyze the effect of virtual reality on cognitive functions. Study methods: 1. Analysis of scientific literature. 2. Systematic literature analysis. Conclusions: 1. An analysis of the scientific literature was performed in which it was found that there are three types of traumatic brain injury: mild, moderate, and severe. The most common disorders after TBI are motor, cognitive, and emotional. Impairment of balance, gait, and cognitive function occurs in all forms of TBI. After TBI, the physiotherapist usually needs to improve static and dynamic balance, restore correct gait, and develop cognitive functions. Using the latest technologies, such as virtual reality, it is possible to facilitate the work of a physiotherapist, to achieve better results. 2. In a systematic analysis of the literature, 5 studies using virtual reality were reviewed. Research has shown that virtual reality develops both static and dynamic balance, trunk control and gait, for patients with all forms of TBI, even during a short period of rehabilitation. After virtual reality therapy, the risk of patients collapsing decreased. 3. Based on the analyzed scientific articles, it can be stated that virtual reality therapy also improves cognitive functions in individuals after TBI In studies, improvements in cognitive function after intervention were investigated in patients with severe TBI.
