Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better usability.","Across four rehabilitation phases: T1 (0-4\u002F6 weeks), T2 (6-12 weeks), T3 (12-20 weeks), and T4 (beyond 20 weeks)",[14,18],{"measure":15,"description":16,"timeFrame":17},"Change in Sense of Presence Using the Igroup Presence Questionnaire (IPQ)","The sense of presence during the execution of rehabilitation exercises in the VR system will be assessed using the Igroup Presence Questionnaire (IPQ).

Among these, shoulder pathologies impose significant limitations, affecting patients' range of motion, quality of life, and daily functionality, often leading to substantial physical and occupational restrictions. Effective rehabilitation is essential for restoring functionality in patients with such disorders.\n\nTraditionally, rehabilitative therapy relies on manual interventions by physiotherapists, which, while beneficial, can be hindered by logistical challenges, including limited accessibility to treatment facilities and professional availability. Additionally, at-home unsupervised exercises often suffer from low adherence due to reduced motivation and lack of engagement.\n\nTechnological advances in recent years have led to the development of novel rehabilitation strategies, particularly in virtual reality (VR) systems, which hold promising applications in musculoskeletal rehabilitation. VR provides a patient-centered, customizable approach that can adapt exercises to the individual's needs, making rehabilitation more engaging and accessible, especially for patients facing physical barriers to in-person care. Additionally, VR technology enables precise tracking of patient movements, offering an objective alternative to traditional assessments reliant on subjective observation and clinical scales.\n\nDespite these advancements, the integration of VR into rehabilitative protocols for MSDs remains underexplored. This clinical study aims to assess the usability, sense of presence, and co-presence of VR systems in patients with shoulder musculoskeletal disorders across four rehabilitation phases. Evaluating these factors through validated questionnaires will provide critical insights into optimizing patient engagement and satisfaction, which are key to enhancing therapeutic outcomes and aligning rehabilitation interventions with patient-specific needs.",[30],{"label":31,"type":32,"description":33,"interventionNames":34},"Patients with shoulder musculoskeletal disorders","EXPERIMENTAL","The study will involve 50 adults with shoulder musculoskeletal disorders.
