Nintendo WII for children with developmental coordination disorder
Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction: Developmental Coordination Disorder is a neurological disorder that causes deterioration in motor coordination, cognitive and psychosocial skills. It affects 5-6% of children. The usual treatment includes physical education and perceptual motor training. In recent years, the use of motor training with Nintendo Wii in these patients has been proposed. The objective of this work is to carry out a review of the scientific literature on the effectiveness of training with Nintendo Wii in children with developmental coordination disorder.
Method: A review was carried out following the PRISMA regulations. The databases of PubMed, Cinahl, PsycINFO, SPORTDiscus, Academic Search Complete, Lilacs, IBECS, CENTRAL, SciELO, and WOS were consulted. The Cochrane tool was used to assess the risk of bias, and the quality of the evidence was GRADE assessed.
Development: Motor training with Nintendo Wii was shown to be effective in children with developmental coordination disorder. The total sample was 297 children from six studies. The frequency of application of motor training with the Nintendo Wii was 2-3 sessions per week, the duration ranged between 20-60 minutes and the total number of sessions was between 10 and 24. All studies showed safety, tolerability and no significant side effects occurred
Conclusions: Motor training with Nintendo Wii improves anaerobic performance, balance, muscle strength, agility, manual dexterity, visual perception, and motor tasks in children with developmental coordination disorder.
