Virtual reality training for stroke patients with neglect
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke affecting the right side of your brain, confirmed by MRI or CT scan.
- It has been at least three months since your stroke.
- You have trouble noticing things on your left side (left neglect), shown by a score on the BIT test.
- You are 19 years old or older.
- You can sit in a chair with back and arm support, and can move your neck without pain or restrictions.
- You do not have vision or hearing problems that would prevent you from using virtual reality.
- You have not had severe motion sickness or dizziness from virtual reality before.

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 uses a virtual reality (VR) app to help people who have trouble paying attention to one side after a stroke. It aims to assess and treat that condition, called neglect.
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.
This trial tests whether immersive virtual reality can help people with brain injury who have spatial neglect (trouble noticing things on one side). You would use VR goggles to do tasks aimed at improving attention and arm movement.
This trial tests a special mixed-reality (computer-generated images overlaid on the real world) task to help diagnose and treat 'neglect' — a condition where people ignore one side of space after a brain injury. It may help you if you have had a stroke or other injury to one side of the brain.
This study tests whether using a virtual reality headset for brain exercises can help people who had a stroke 2 to 4 months ago. It focuses on improving memory and thinking skills.
