Abstract

22 adult females diagnosed as suffering Fibromyalgia syndrome
(FMS) participated in two explorative studies investigating potential benefits
from playing gesture-controlled video games. A main goal was researching
potentials of commercial gaming systems with inbuilt Internet connectivity
toward home-based self-driven adaptable ‘telerehabilitation’ targeting means to
increase tolerance to pain and thus, augmenting quality of life for sufferers.
Beside this, an aim was to study variance between facilitator formal and
informal intervention approaches and to analyze potential influence on
outcomes; this is the core focus of this paper. Typical to FMS studies, high
patient drop out numbers resulted in limited compliance. Informal facilitator
intervention (non-therapist) resulted in significantly higher outcome scores
(increased tolerance indicators/reported pain threshold) when compared to a
formal therapeutic intervention approach. Findings, whilst not conclusive, offer
a point of departure to discuss how intervention approach influences outcomes
and patient benefit, especially when a self-driven training regime is designed.
