En 2022, les troubles d\u00e9pressifs ont \u00e9t\u00e9 la principale cause d'arr\u00eats maladie en France. Au cours de leur vie, 15 \u00e0 20 % de la population sera touch\u00e9e par cette maladie. Il s'agit donc d'un enjeu majeur de sant\u00e9 publique. Cette \u00e9tude vise \u00e0 \u00e9valuer l'efficacit\u00e9 d'un programme d'intervention en ergoth\u00e9rapie utilisant des activit\u00e9s simul\u00e9es en r\u00e9alit\u00e9 virtuelle pour am\u00e9liorer la participation sociale des personnes souffrant d'un trouble d\u00e9pressif majeur. Les 18 s\u00e9ances du programme adoptent une approche globale, gr\u00e2ce aux outils MOHO int\u00e9gr\u00e9s, qui permettent une analyse th\u00e9matique chronologique. La r\u00e9alit\u00e9 virtuelle offre aux ergoth\u00e9rapeutes des outils pour concevoir des activit\u00e9s et des environnements de mani\u00e8re progressive et pr\u00e9cise. Elle permet de cibler des comp\u00e9tences et des int\u00e9r\u00eats parfois inaccessibles dans la vie r\u00e9elle. Son aspect ludique pourrait avoir un impact sur les sympt\u00f4mes de la maladie et contribuer \u00e0 am\u00e9liorer la participation sociale.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

La peur de tomber a un impact significatif sur l'engagement des personnes \u00e2g\u00e9es dans leurs activit\u00e9s quotidiennes. Si l'utilisation des nouvelles technologies en ergoth\u00e9rapie suscite un int\u00e9r\u00eat croissant, peu d'\u00e9tudes ont explor\u00e9 leur potentiel pour am\u00e9liorer cet engagement. Cette \u00e9tude examine les effets de la r\u00e9alit\u00e9 virtuelle (RV) en r\u00e9adaptation afin de favoriser l'engagement occupationnel chez les personnes \u00e2g\u00e9es \u00e0 risque de chute. L'analyse d'entretiens semi-structur\u00e9s men\u00e9s aupr\u00e8s de trois ergoth\u00e9rapeutes r\u00e9v\u00e8le l'impact positif de la RV sur la motivation des patients et leur adh\u00e9sion au programme de r\u00e9adaptation. Compl\u00e9mentaire aux approches traditionnelles, la RV favorise l'engagement occupationnel en offrant une exp\u00e9rience immersive et stimulante. Toutefois, cette \u00e9tude souligne l'importance d'int\u00e9grer la RV en tenant compte des besoins individuels. Des recherches suppl\u00e9mentaires, utilisant des mesures standardis\u00e9es, sont n\u00e9cessaires pour explorer l'effet sp\u00e9cifique de la RV sur la peur de tomber et pour approfondir les questions \u00e9thiques li\u00e9es \u00e0 l'int\u00e9gration de cette technologie dans la pratique professionnelle.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Contexte:<\/strong> L'activit\u00e9 physique, et notamment la double t\u00e2che, est recommand\u00e9e pour pr\u00e9venir les chutes chez les personnes \u00e2g\u00e9es, mais son manque d'attrait limite la participation.<\/p>

Objectif de la recherche\u00a0:<\/strong> Cr\u00e9er un programme de pr\u00e9vention attrayant de 8 semaines utilisant des \u00ab balades \u00e0 v\u00e9lo \u00bb en r\u00e9alit\u00e9 virtuelle sur le v\u00e9lo Cycl\u00e9oONE\u00ae.<\/p>

M\u00e9thodologie:<\/strong> Nos crit\u00e8res \u00e9taient les suivants\u00a0: 1) des s\u00e9ances bihebdomadaires comprenant trois sorties de 10\u00a0minutes dans des environnements vari\u00e9s, stimulant les capacit\u00e9s physiques et cognitives, ainsi que les interactions sociales, et int\u00e9grant diverses doubles t\u00e2ches\u00a0; 2) des sorties \u00e9co-responsables avec une augmentation progressive des diff\u00e9rentes capacit\u00e9s sollicit\u00e9es. Deux r\u00e9sidents d\u2019un EHPAD (EHPAD) ont particip\u00e9 \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9laboration de ce programme\u00a0: \u00e9valuations sur v\u00e9lo, suivies de cinq s\u00e9ances d\u2019entra\u00eenement en bin\u00f4me.<\/p>

R\u00e9sultats:<\/strong> Les capacit\u00e9s physiques ont \u00e9t\u00e9 stimul\u00e9es par la variation de la puissance de p\u00e9dalage, et les interactions sociales ont \u00e9t\u00e9 favoris\u00e9es par les conversations pendant les sorties. Pour les sorties cognitives, diff\u00e9rents sc\u00e9narios de la vie quotidienne ont \u00e9t\u00e9 sp\u00e9cialement cr\u00e9\u00e9s. L'activit\u00e9 de cyclisme en r\u00e9alit\u00e9 virtuelle a \u00e9t\u00e9 tr\u00e8s bien accueillie. Les deux participants ont montr\u00e9 une am\u00e9lioration dans plusieurs aptitudes cibl\u00e9es apr\u00e8s seulement cinq s\u00e9ances.<\/p>

In 2022, depressive disorders caused the highest number of medical absences from work in France. In their lifetime, 15-20% of the population will be affected by this illness. Therefore, it is a crucial public health issue for our society. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of an occupational therapy intervention programme using simulated virtual reality activities to improve the occupational participation of people suffering from a major depressive disorder. The 18 sessions included in the programme adopt a comprehensive approach, thanks to the MOHO tools incorporated, which enable a chronological thematic analysis. Virtual reality provides occupational therapy tools for setting up activities and environments in a fine, progressive way. It allows to target skills and interests that are sometimes unattainable in real-life. Its entertaining side could have an effect on the symptoms of the disease and play a role in improving occupational participation.

Context: Physical activity, particularly dual-tasking, is recommended to prevent falls in older adults, but its lack of appeal limits participation. Research objective: To create an engaging 8-week prevention program using virtual reality “bike rides” on the Cycl\u00e9oONE\u00ae bicycle. Methodology: Our criteria were: 1) bi-weekly sessions consisting of three 10-minute rides in varied environments, stimulating physical and cognitive abilities, as well as social interaction, and incorporating various dual-tasks; 2) eco-friendly rides with a progressive increase in the different abilities involved. Two residents of a nursing home (EHPAD) participated in the creation of this program: assessments on the bicycle, followed by five paired training sessions. Results: Physical abilities were stimulated by varying pedaling power, and social interactions were enhanced through conversations during the rides. For the cognitive rides, various everyday life scenarios were specifically created. The virtual reality cycling activity was very well received. Both participants showed improvement in several targeted abilities after just five sessions.

Contact us Using virtual reality in occupational therapy to support the occupational participation of people with major depressive disorder. In 2022, depressive disorders caused the highest number of medical absences from work in France. In their lifetime, 15-20% of the population will be affected by this illness. Therefore, it is a crucial public health issue for our society. The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of an occupational therapy intervention programme using simulated virtual reality activities to improve the occupational participation of people suffering from a major depressive disorder. The 18 sessions included in the programme adopt a comprehensive approach, thanks to the MOHO tools incorporated, which enable a chronological thematic analysis. Virtual reality provides occupational therapy tools for setting up activities and environments in a fine, progressive way. It allows to target skills and interests that are sometimes unattainable in real-life. Its entertaining side could have an effect on the symptoms of the disease and play a role in improving occupational participation. Download the report Virtual Reality and Occupational Engagement: A new perspective on the rehabilitation of elderly people at risk of falling. Fear of falling significantly impacts older adults’ engagement in their occupations. While the use of new technologies in occupational therapy is generating interest, few studies have explored their potential to improve engagement. This study explores the effects of virtual reality (VR) in rehabilitation to promote occupational engagement among seniors at risk of falling. Analysis of semi-structured interviews with three occupational therapists reveals the positive impact of VR on patients’ motivation and adherence to rehabilitation. As a complement to traditional approaches, VR promotes occupational engagement by offering an immersive and stimulating experience. However, this study highlights the importance of integrating VR in a way that takes individual needs into account. Further research using standardized measures is needed to explore the specific effect of VR on fear of falling and to further consider the ethical issues related to integrating technology into professional practice. Download the report Implementation of a fall prevention program for the elderly through a fun cognitive-motor activity: practicing cycling in virtual reality. Context: Physical activity, particularly dual-tasking, is recommended to prevent falls in older adults, but its lack of appeal limits participation. Research objective: To create an engaging 8-week prevention program using virtual reality “bike rides” on the Cycl\u00e9oONE\u00ae bicycle. Methodology: Our criteria were: 1) bi-weekly sessions consisting of three 10-minute rides in varied environments, stimulating physical and cognitive abilities, as well as social interaction, and incorporating various dual-tasks; 2) eco-friendly rides with a progressive increase in the different abilities involved. Two residents of a nursing home (EHPAD) participated in the creation of this program: assessments on the bicycle, followed by five paired training sessions. Results: Physical abilities were stimulated by varying pedaling power, and social interactions were enhanced through conversations during the rides. For the cognitive rides, various everyday life scenarios were specifically created. The virtual reality cycling activity was very well received. Both participants showed improvement in several targeted abilities after just five sessions. Discussion\/Conclusion: In light of these promising results, the effectiveness of this program in preventing falls among older adults will be tested soon.
