The purpose of this work was to examine motor outcomes following an 8-week intervention period of family-supported Nintendo Wii use by a child with a diagnosis of Down syndrome (DS).
A 12-year-old child with a diagnosis of DS and with limited Wii exposure was asked to play Wii games in the home 4 times each week for 20 minutes each session for 8 weeks. Family members were encouraged to participate. The participant chose what games to play and selected 4 different games. Repeatedly practicing the skills involved in these games resulted in improvements in the child's postural stability, limits of stability, and Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency, 2nd edition balance, upper-limb coordination, manual dexterity, and running speed and agility standard scores.
Wii game use by a child with DS may elicit improvements in highly practiced motor skills and postural control.
本研究旨在探讨一名被诊断为唐氏综合征（DS）的儿童在接受为期8周的家庭支持下使用任天堂Wii的干预期后的运动结果。
一名12岁被诊断为DS且很少接触Wii的儿童被要求在家中每周玩4次Wii游戏，每次20分钟，共8周。鼓励家庭成员参与。参与者选择玩什么游戏，并挑选了4种不同的游戏。反复练习这些游戏所涉及的技能，使该儿童在姿势稳定性、稳定极限以及布鲁宁克斯-奥塞瑞斯基运动技能测试第二版的平衡、上肢协调性、手部灵活性、跑步速度和敏捷性标准分数方面都有所提高。
DS儿童使用Wii游戏可能会使高度练习的运动技能和姿势控制得到改善。
