Resumen

Los videojuegos activos o exergames están en auge últimamente, ya que motivan y promueven el ejercicio físico y los hábitos de vida saludables. Los programas de ejercicio con realidad virtual inmersiva (RVI) podrían compararse con programas de entrenamiento tradicionales. Un punto de partida para ello sería explorar las respuestas fisiológicas que puede generar su uso. Por tanto, el objetivo principal fue evaluar la respuesta a través de ciertos indicadores fisiológicos (frecuencia cardiaca, presión arterial y estrés) después de una exposición a un exergame RVI en una muestra de adultos sanos, y, en segundo lugar, explorar su viabilidad, seguridad y usabilidad como herramienta para facilitar el ejercicio físico. Participaron en el estudio 37 adultos sanos (22-54 años, 54,1% mujeres). Realizaron una sesión de exergaming con el hardware HTC Vive ProTM. Todos completaron la sesión de RVI sin efectos adversos significativos. Todos los parámetros fisiológicos evaluados aumentaron significativamente en relación con los niveles preintervención. En cuanto a los resultados secundarios, el esfuerzo percibido correspondió a un ejercicio de moderado a intenso (6,3±0,5/10 en la escala CR10 de Borg ), la intervención se consideró segura (1/37 informaron de una conciencia estomacal moderada en el Simulator Sickness Questionnaire), con buena usabilidad (>76% en la System Usability Scale), valorada positivamente por la muestra (0,05/4 puntuaciones de experiencia negativa en el Game Experience Questionnaire-postjuego), y el 100% de la muestra informó de una experiencia buena o muy buena y la recomendaría. Estos resultados respaldan que nuestra sesión de exergame RVI fue factible y puede compararse con una actividad física de moderada a intensa, ya que supuso un esfuerzo percibido similar con aumentos significativos de la frecuencia cardiaca, la presión arterial y los niveles de cortisol salival.
