Experimental Treatment

Active Control

Group I: Technology-based therapyExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Patients who require acute rehabilitation due to deconditioning and surgery will receive either virtual reality (VR) or augmented reality (AR) to improve clinical outcomes such as range of motion, gait progression, strength progression, time to first out of bed, time to first step.

Group II: Standard of Care therapyActive Control1 Intervention

Patients who require acute rehabilitation due to deconditioning and surgery will receive physical therapy based on his/her providers recommendations to improve outcomes such as range of motion, gait progression, strength progression, time to first out of bed, time to first step
