Clinical Trial Summary

The growing field of new technologies offers new perspectives for neurorehabilitation. Serious games are a promising solution in the rehabilitation of cognitive impairments, and they may be useful in the rehabilitation of unilateral spatial neglect. The investigators developed a rehabilitation program for visual exploration training with a serious game and investigated its efficiency.

Six patients with unilateral spatial neglect after a right hemispheric stroke were recruited. Three patients assigned to the experimental group received both serious game training and conventional rehabilitation, and three assigned to the control group received only conventional rehabilitation. The investigators compared the two groups after rehabilitation.

Intervention

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Bells test	35 bells are spatially distributed among distractors on sheet of paper (15 on the left side, 5 on the center and 15 on the right side). Subjects have to cancel as many bells as possible. The number of omissions on the left and on the right side is recorded.	up to 4 weeks
Secondary	Bisection of lines	2 lines of 200 millimeters are presented on a sheet of paper. Subjects have to mark the middle of the lines. The deviation from the objective middle is measured in millimeter.	up to 4 weeks
Secondary	Ogden scene copying	Copying of the 'Ogden scene' required participants to copy a scene that consisted of 2 trees, a fence and a house (shown from left to right side of the page). Each stroke in the scene to be copied was counted as a point; each omitted stroke was scored as one error, and each distorted or misplaced stroke was scored as one-half of an error (/4).	up to 4 weeks
Secondary	Reading task	A text of 116 words is presented with 61 words on the left side and 55 on the right side. Subjects have to read this text. Number of omissions on the left and on the right side is recorded.	up to 4 weeks
