Computer-based Attention Training in Patients With Acquired Brain Injury
Not Applicable
Completed
- Conditions
- Brain Injuries
- Registration Number
- NCT02399293
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Aarhus
- Brief Summary
Investigates computer based cognitive rehabilitation and training using the N-back task with a Visual Search task as an active control. The overall purpose is to provide (further) evidence about the efficacy (or lack of efficacy) of the N-back task and to find points of convergence and divergence between patients with acquired brain injury and non-impaired subjects.
