Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study aims to evaluate the usability, user experience, and tolerability of a virtual reality-based rehabilitation game platform specifically developed for individuals with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Participants will complete a single-session gameplay experience using an immersive virtual reality headset with hand-tracking technology. Following the gameplay session, usability, enjoyment, and potential virtual reality-related discomfort will be assessed using standardized questionnaires and qualitative feedback. The study is exploratory and formative in nature and does not aim to evaluate clinical effectiveness.
