Brain Cognitiva - Neuromotor rehabilitation with virtual reality

Digital technology for motor and cognitive rehabilitation of neurological patients

Brain Cognitiva - Neuromotor rehabilitation with virtual reality
Project summary
Country:
Colombia
Type of structure:
IPS qualified in Physical Therapy
Field:
MEDICAL
BTS used technologies::
NIRVANA, BAIOBIT

The Brain Cognitiva therapy center deals with rehabilitation of patients with different neurological pathologies or with their consequences. In addition, since virtual immersion systems and technologies are constantly changing and are becoming more adaptable, our greatest challenge is that in the short and medium term, Brain Cognitiva can offer specialized treatments in new contexts.

It is committed to finding effective solutions based on state-of-the-art technology in order to accelerate recovery processes in the shortest possible time, improving patients quality of life and well-being.
Based on this, the exercises performed in a virtual environment help patients to develop knowledge of the results and the quality of their movements, positively impacting the functioning and autonomy of the patient, including their cognitive abilities. Global stimulation and dual tasks generate greater benefits for the patient, in turn improving executive functions and processing speed; increasing the motivation and enjoyment of patients that further favors behavioral and cognitive recovery.

The work carried out since the opening of Brain Cognitiva in October 2021 has had a great impact on 942 patients treated with NIRVANA and BAIOBIT.
The training and rehabilitation cycles are made up of 16 personalized sessions lasting 40 minutes.
These cycles have proven to be effective in the recovery and stable maintenance of patients.
Additionally, it has been shown that patients have had greater adherence to the training and rehabilitation process with the therapies offered by Brain Cognitiva, since as they are innovative, personalized, and dynamic therapies, they motivate the patient during their treatment, positively impacting their recovery.

The challenge

The work carried out during the first year in Brain Cognitiva, as a therapy center that uses technology with virtual immersion, as is the case of Nirvana, to achieve levels of cognitive and neuromotor rehabilitation, has provided a treatment method that suggests an innovative and versatile strategy in addressing the specific health needs of people diagnosed with neurological disorders.
For this reason, in our therapeutic progress, we will continue expanding technological and human resources, so that patients with lesions that compromise the functional and structural integrity of the nervous system, find in our center therapies that are supported by scientific evidence and that demonstrate their results, proven when using rehabilitation with virtual reality.

The change

The immersive virtual reality is increasingly used to improve and expand the process of cognitive and motor rehabilitation, in order to help patients with brain disease work to prevent the progression and/or improve the cognitive and neuromotor deficits that arise after a neurological condition.
The Brain Cognitiva therapy center deals with rehabilitation of patients with different neurological pathologies or with their consequences, who are referred to the center by its founder, Dr. Francisco Bernal Cano, a clinical neurologist.
Considering the achievements in terms of recovery, rehabilitation and training of neurological patients, Brain Cognitiva has positioned itself as a pioneer rehabilitation center in the use of virtual reality, which effectively contributes to the improvement of each of the treated patients.

How our technologies have been used

– Nirvana virtual immersion therapy:
It contributes to the improvement of physical abilities such as: gait, balance, strength, motion and cognitive abilities through dual task training focused on improving the functionality and independence of the patient.
– Cognitive stimulation therapy:
It contributes to the improvement of cognitive abilities such as: attention, memory, language, reasoning, and calculation, among others, through a digital system that allows a detailed measurement of the impact of therapy in each session.

“After knowing the scope of neuronal plasticity, we realize everything we can do for the rehabilitation of our patients with the use of NIRVANA and BAIOBIT”

We have chosen BTS because…

The foundation at BTS is credible and innovative. They share with the clients the skills and the importance of updating the systems and technologies based on virtual immersion, as is the case of Nirvana and Baiobit , to ensure that all patients can benefit from the well-being advantages provided and  the well-being of the patient’s health becomes a reality within everyone’s reach. 
BTS invites us to constantly change, to be part of the challenge that mark the processes of cognitive and neuromotor rehabilitation, from a new scenario such as virtual reality, in the short and medium term, so that Brain Cognitiva can offer specialized treatments in new contexts.
