Rehabilitation methods for stroke-related neglect
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests different therapy methods to help people who have trouble paying attention to one side of the world after a stroke. It aims to find which approach works best for improving this 'neglect' and helping you get back to daily activities.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a robotic arm to see how well it can measure spatial neglect in stroke survivors. Spatial neglect is a condition where you might not notice things on one side of your body or space, and this robot could help doctors measure it more precisely.
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 study tests whether virtual reality training can help people who, after a stroke, have trouble noticing things on one side of their body or space (called unilateral neglect). You would use a VR headset to practice tasks that may retrain your brain's attention.
This study tests a strategy-training program to help people who have had a stroke and struggle with spatial neglect (trouble paying attention to one side). The program is designed to improve attention and daily function. Participation involves coming to the University of Pittsburgh for training sessions.
This study tests a special balance and attention training program for people who have had a stroke on the right side of the brain and now have trouble paying attention to the left side of their world (called neglect). The training may help improve balance and daily activities.
This trial tests whether virtual reality exercises can help people with right-brain stroke overcome 'neglect' (trouble noticing things on their left side). It aims to improve daily function and quality of life.
