This pilot randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of cognitive rehabilitation using an immersive Virtual Reality (VR) system compared to conventional paper-and-pencil cognitive training in subacute stroke patients. A total of 22 participants will be randomly assigned to either the VR intervention group (n=11) or the conventional control group (n=11).

Effect of Cognitive Rehabilitation Using Immersive Virtual Reality on Cognitive Function and Functional Activity of Subacute Stroke Patients: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
This pilot randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of cognitive rehabilitation using an immersive Virtual Reality (VR) system compared to conventional paper-and-pencil cognitive training in subacute stroke patients. A total of 22 participants will be randomly assigned to either the VR intervention group (n=11) or the conventional control group (n=11). The study will measure changes in cognitive function and functional independence
