Tokyo, Sept. 1 -- UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN-CTR) received information related to the study (UMIN000058806) titled 'Quantitative Assessment of Perioperative Motor Function Using Virtual Reality in Patients with Myelopathy' on Sept. 1.

Study Type: Interventional

Study Design: Basic Design - Single arm Randomization - Non-randomized Blinding - Open -no one is blinded Control - Self control

Primary Sponsor: Institute - Gunma University

Condition: Condition - Patients with myelopathy Classification by malignancy - Others Genomic information - NO

Objective: Narrative objectives1 - The aim of this study is to explore the potential of virtual reality (VR) technology as a novel tool for quantitatively assessing motor function in patients with myelopathy undergoing surgical treatment. By comparing VR-based motor evaluations with conventional clinical assessments at preoperative and postoperative time points, this study seeks to validate the clinical utility of VR for perioperative functional monitoring and outcome prediction. Basic objectives2 - Others

Intervention: Interventions/Control_1 - Device used:Sony PlayStation VR2 VR headset PlayStation VR2 Sense controllers (Left/Right) with straps

Patients with myelopathy scheduled for spinal surgery will undergo additional motor function assessments using virtual reality (VR) technology, in addition to routine clinical evaluations. Healthy volunteers will also undergo both conventional and VR-based assessments for comparative analysis. Patients will be evaluated preoperatively and at multiple postoperative time points.

Eligibility: Age-lower limit - 20 years-old = Gender - Male and Female Key inclusion criteria - Myelopathy group 1). Aged between 20 and 85 years, regardless of sex 2). Diagnosed with a spinal cord or spinal column disorder and scheduled to undergo surgical treatment 3). Able to participate in VR-based assessments and rehabilitation (i.e., capable of maintaining a seated position and performing required movements) 4). Provided written informed consent for participation in this study
