Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary outcome: increased hand grip strength measured by dynamometer and improved range of motion measured by goniometer. It is hoped that the hand grip strength and range of motion present higher values ??in the group gameterapia

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary outcome: enhanced motivational state of the patient after use of gameterapia, measured through the satisfaction survey.
