Study Overview
Brief Summary
The growing field of new technologies offers new perspectives for neurorehabilitation. Serious games are a promising solution in the rehabilitation of cognitive impairments, and they may be useful in the rehabilitation of unilateral spatial neglect. Investigators developed a rehabilitation program for visual exploration training with a serious game and investigated its efficiency. Twelve patients with unilateral spatial neglect after a right hemispheric stroke were recruited. Six patients assigned to a group received both serious game training and conventional rehabilitation, and after only conventional rehabilitation; and six patients assigned to another group received first conventional rehabilitation and then serious game training and conventional rehabilitation. The investigators compared the two groups after rehabilitation.
