Virtual reality therapy for left-side neglect after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether immersive virtual reality with added sensations (like sounds and touch) can help people who have trouble noticing their left side after a right-sided stroke. If you had a first right-sided stroke within the past 3 months and have left neglect, this might help you regain function.
