GlenxRose – Linking the Clinic and Industry to Improve Patients’ Adherence to Therapeutic Interventions Using eXtended Reality

The present proposal is focused in extended reality technologies applied for the rehabilitation of brain injuries and voice-related disorders. The prevalence of these two conditions are high in the Canadian population. The adherence in the rehabilitation of these medical conditions are low. The University of Alberta (CogPro lab) in collaboration with the Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital has created an extended reality system called the ‘GlenxRose program’ for improving patient adherence to therapy for brain injuries and voice-related disorders. The general objective of this research design and implement clinical research in order to foster the adoption of a new rehabilitation technology, i.e. ‘GlenxRose program’ in the standard care services at the Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital.
