Virtual reality exercises for new attention problems after brain injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether virtual reality (computer-generated) exercises can improve attention after a recent brain injury, most often stroke. You may be eligible if your brain injury happened within the last month and testing shows measurable attention difficulties.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your stroke or brain injury happened less than 1 month ago
- You have test results showing attention problems on a standard neuropsychology evaluation
- Your brain injury is confirmed on a routine CT or MRI scan
- You are 18 years or older and can sign informed consent
- You should be able to follow and complete the study tasks during the virtual reality sessions

This study uses virtual reality (VR) to help people who have had a stroke and have trouble paying attention to one side of space (called neglect). It aims to see if VR training can improve attention and daily living skills.
This study tests whether using immersive virtual reality (a special headset that puts you in a computer-generated world) can help improve thinking and memory problems that can happen after a stroke. Participation involves doing rehabilitation exercises in virtual reality, which might help you recover better.
This study tests whether using virtual reality exercises can help people with brain injuries who have trouble paying attention to their left side. You will wear a headset and practice moving your arm and hand in a virtual world, which may improve your daily function.
This trial tests an augmented reality (AR) system to find and treat “neglect” after an acute stroke. If you qualify, it may help assess attention problems and guide rehabilitation exercises.
This study tests a special exercise program that uses virtual reality to help people who had a stroke practice sitting and standing. It aims to improve your quality of life, and all exercises are done in a safe, supportive setting.
This study tests whether virtual reality (an immersive computer game) can help improve your walking after a stroke. You will use a VR headset while walking on a treadmill to make rehab more engaging and effective.
