Data Extracts: Comparison of IVR with CR: Natural movements

Participant ID	Page	Line number	Quotation
Pt 1	2	84	It was really easy to move my arm, and I did not realise
Pt 3	11	479, 481–482	You did not feel like you were doing physio. It just felt like you were playing a game
Pt 4	15	613–614	It felt good because you are like in your own […] makes you like happy and concentrating on the game
Pr 1	3	85–88	The range of movements seemed to be a lot more fluent. It was just like, it was a natural reaction to just do that, and the movement was just better than it would be if you had not had it [VR headset] on
		101–103	I think is a much more fun and encouraging way to do that for children without them subconsciously thinking about what they are doing
		114–117	[reproduction of movement with the VR] It just felt as though it was like I say a natural reaction for her [the patient] to do it. And did not look as though it was hard work for her to hold. And she was not complaining of any pain or uncomfortableness during. So to me, it was really beneficial for her
Pr 2	7	313–318	[Patient name] is quite healed now. So when we went through physio, she struggled doing the movements because it hurt so much. But if we had the game, I think she had just done it without realising part of the time
	9	380–384	When she was doing her physio, she was reluctant to do it because she knew It was going to hurt, and she knew what was coming. So, the game, it just does not make them think about it. They just do it. Because he is not thinking she needs to be doing the physio, like normal he is doing, yeah
	8	338–339	Her measurement moving back, so that was a really positive come out of it
Pr 3	11	487–494	She has been doing physio in the past, and it is been, like, do this exercise so many times a day for several minutes. And it is a chore. And you know, she will do this and then lose interest, forget that day or could not or whatever. The fact it was a game and she found it engaging and enjoyed it meant she looked forward to doing it every day. And I think that because it was more entertaining, she was doing the exercises without realising she was doing it
Pr 5	21	872–873	When I was watching him play the game, I saw the ease of movement really good for his rehabilitation on his arm
Pr 8	28	1214–1218	I feel like she was getting more out of it, she was using her arm more because subconsciously does not think about it, do you when you are doing something like that. And I think that it is definitely made her realise what she can do with it [frame] on, and it is made her movements a lot better
