Spatial neglect: is rehabilitation effective?
Selection Criteria We selected controlled trials of cognitive rehabilitation for neglect in which at least 75% of the sample were stroke patients or separate stroke data were available. Two reviewers independently selected trials, extracted data, and assessed trial quality. We included 15 studies (8 in the United States, 7 in Europe) with 400 participants. A large number of different outcome me...
متن کاملOutcome Rather Than Process Evaluations
This paper presents a theoretical model which discusses the value of and need for the use of outcome rather than process evaluations of programs for the elderly. The theoretical framework is based on the highly successful philosophical model of statistical quality control used in industry, which assumes the best way to improve quality is to look at the outcomes. Most accreditation associations,...
متن کاملPlasticity in spatial neglect: recovery and rehabilitation.
Hemineglect (synonymous: unilateral spatial neglect) denotes the impaired or lost ability to react to or process sensory stimuli (visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, imaginal) presented in the hemispace contralateral to a lesioned cerebral hemisphere or to act upon such stimuli motorically (motor neglect). Despite recovery of the most obvious signs of hemineglect in the first 2–3 months after...
متن کاملCognitive rehabilitation for spatial neglect following stroke.
BACKGROUND Unilateral spatial neglect causes difficulty attending to one side of space. Various rehabilitation interventions have been used but evidence of their benefit is lacking. OBJECTIVES To assess whether cognitive rehabilitation improves functional independence, neglect (as measured using standardised assessments), destination on discharge, falls, balance, depression/anxiety and qualit...
متن کاملSpatial-Orientation Priming Impedes Rather than Facilitates the Spontaneous Control of Hand-Retraction Speeds in Patients with Parkinson’s Disease
BACKGROUND Often in Parkinson's disease (PD) motor-related problems overshadow latent non-motor deficits as it is difficult to dissociate one from the other with commonly used observational inventories. Here we ask if the variability patterns of hand speed and acceleration would be revealing of deficits in spatial-orientation related decisions as patients performed a familiar reach-to-grasp tas...
