Abstract :
Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that generally affects the motor and non-motor systems. Parkinson has various symptoms that directly or indirectly affect the quality of life of sufferers and their families. Because it is progressive, the older the patient will experience deficits in mobility, agility, and executive function, this will affect patient ability to organize daily life, resulting in the disruption of the patient?s overall quality of life. The individual severity of Parkinson's disease was measured using the Hoehn and Yahr scale. To prevent rapid worsening, people with Parkinson's should undergo regular physical therapy. There are many exercise methods that can be applied, depending on the severity. One method that uses technology and is starting to be applied is virtual reality. Objective: to determine the mechanism of using virtual reality to improve motor function in Parkinson's patients. Methods: literature review, search for scientific articles using literature search engines, namely PubMed, Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro), google schoolar, Cochrane Library, Science Direct, and Jane BioSemantics. Accompanied by the criteria for the year published from 2011-2021, the article is in the form of a randomized controlled trial, with research subjects having grades 1-4 for the Hoehn and Yahr scale, Mini-Mental State Examination score> 24 and articles or journals discussing the use of virtual reality in Parkinson's patients. Results: 295 articles were found, which were then filtered by inclusion criteria so that 5 articles were selected for review. From these 5 articles, the use of virtual reality in Parkinson's sufferers for motor improvement is quite significant because it provides feedback in the form of auditory and visual to improve motor performance and the exercises provided are integrated into everyday life environments that are similar to the real world. Giving this method can also use a combination of virtual reality and conventional therapy (conventional therapy) to get better results.
