OBJECTIVES The lack of agreement regarding assessment methods is responsible for the variability in the reported rate of occurrence of spatial neglect after stroke. The aim of this study was to assess the sensitivity of different tests of neglect after right hemisphere stroke. METHODS Two hundred and six subacute right hemisphere stroke patients were given a test battery including a prelimina...
BACKGROUND Elder neglect accounts for over 70% of all adult protective services reports in the nation annually, and it has been estimated that there are over 70,000 new cases each year. The purpose of this study was to conduct elder neglect research in the emergency department (ED), using a dyadic vulnerability/risk-profiling framework for elder neglect. METHODS Patients were recruited throug...
OBJECTIVE To learn more about the behavioural and anatomical features of ipsilesional neglect. METHODS Thirty consecutive patients with spatial neglect were tested on cancellation and line bisection tasks. To learn if patients with ipsilesional neglect demonstrate the sensory-attentional or motor-intentional type of neglect, a video apparatus was used that dissociates these determinants. RE...
The site of lesion responsible for left hemispatial neglect after stroke has been intensely debated recently. Some studies provide evidence that right angular lesions are most likely to cause left neglect, whereas others indicate that right superior temporal lesions are most likely to cause neglect. We examine two potential accounts of the conflicting results: (1) neglect could result from cort...
Motor neglect is characterised by an underutilisation of one side, without defects of strength, reflexes or sensibility. Twenty cases of frontal, parietal and thalamic lesions causing motor neglect, but all without sensory neglect, are reported. It is proposed that the cerebral structures involved in motor neglect are the same as those for sensory neglect and for the preparation of movement. As...
Neglect and anosognosia are serious consequences of stroke. Authors have found great variations in their incidence and their relationship to disability has been unclear. We studied the incidence of neglect and anosognosia within the scope of a population-based stroke-incidence study, and also evaluated their impact on disability. Four tests of visuo-spatial neglect, four tests of personal negle...
This article presents a current definition of dental neglect. Identification, a case history, and legal aspects of such negligence are reviewed. A survey of state laws reveals that only Wisconsin and New York include dental care in their neglect statutes. Finally, future challenges for the dental profession are outlined. T h e problem of dental neglect is ubiquitous; yet, only recently has been...
epidemiology and characteristics. Dentists are likely to encounter physical abuse, sexual abuse, health care neglect, dental neglect, and safety neglect. Approximately 1% of children are abused or neglected each year in the United States. The incidence of each type in 1980 is recorded in Table 2.2 Physical Abuse Dentists are in a strategic position to recognize mistreated children. While the de...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In stroke patients, neglect diagnostic is often performed by means of paper-pencil cancellation tasks. These tasks entail static stimuli, and provide no information concerning possible changes in the severity of neglect symptoms when patients are confronted with motion. We therefore aimed to directly contrast the cancellation behaviour of neglect patients under static and...
This article describes the development of the Community Norms of Child Neglect Scale (CNCNS), a new measure of perceptions of child neglect, for use in community samples. The CNCNS differentiates among four subtypes of neglect (failure to provide for basic needs, lack of supervision, emotional neglect, and educational neglect). Scenarios ranging in seriousness for each subtype were presented to...
