Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to determine whether Virtual Reality VR training has significant effects on balance and fall risk of patients with COPD with a focus on the patient group GOLD STANDARD I amp II Additionally the study determines whether VR training is a reliable substitute for traditional physical therapy balance
Detailed Description: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease COPD is the forth leading cause of mortality worldwide COPD often impairs balance due to decreased physical activity muscle weakness and compromised respiratory function Virtual Reality training addresses these issues by offering an immersive and engaging environment that enhances patient motivation and adherence to rehabilitation The technology allows for personalized and controlled balance exercises progressively increasing the difficulty to match the patients skill level and providing real-time feedback By integrating cognitive and motor tasks VR promotes a comprehensive approach to balance training improving sensory integration and postural control

Research indicates that VR training can enhance both static and dynamic balance helping patients maintain stability in various conditions It improves the integration of sensory inputs crucial for balance while also contributing to muscle strength and endurance This results in a reduction in fall frequency as patients become more adept at managing balance and are less likely to fall during daily activities Additionally VR training teaches specific fall prevention strategies and boosts patient confidence which further mitigates the fear of falling-a common issue among COPD patients

Incorporating VR training into physical therapy programs for COPD patients can be highly beneficial Its ability to provide engaging and customizable exercises makes it a valuable tool in addressing balance issues and reducing fall risks However it is essential to ensure that VR training is conducted under proper supervision to avoid potential accidents especially in patients with severe COPD or additional health concerns Overall VR training represents a significant advancement in rehabilitation offering a novel and effective approach to managing balance and fall risks in COPD patients The purpose of study is to determine whether VR training has significant effects on balance and fall risk of patients with COPD GOLD standard stage I amp II
