There was limited evidence on the specific topic, which suggests more research should be done to investigate the effect. More is known on different phases regarding stroke, which all statistically significant improved with use of gaming as therapy. Use of different consoles also proved to be significantly improving in chronic stroke patients. These results show a promising view on therapy for stroke survivors.
