Summary

The purpose of this research is to determine the effectiveness of using the Dynavision D2 to improve left neglect in adults with brain injury, and improve performance of ADLs/IADLs. This study will use a randomized control trial at Providence Care Hospital in Kingston Ontario, with clients admitted to the Stroke and ABI services who have been identified through the Catherine Bergego Scale (CBS) as having moderate to severe left neglect. Individuals will be randomly assigned to the control arm, where they will get the usual 60 minutes of OT treatment daily or the intervention arm, which is 30 minutes of their usual OT treatment and a 30 minute session of the Dynavision for 10 sessions for short stay inpatients (\~ 3 weeks) and 20 sessions for clients with longer 5-6 week stay. The CBS will be used to measure change in neglect severity at three time points: baseline, following 10 sessions and following 20 sessions, for those that stay for longer.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Dynavision D2

Use of the Dynavision will be comprised of six 3-minute or nine 2-minute sessions with 30 seconds to one-minute rest in between. All Dynavision sessions require clients to scan the 4' by 4' vertical board and hit the lit targets one at a time. Participants will be able to depress targets with their left or right hand, in standing or sitting.
