Multisensory Integration and Cognitive Awareness in Post-Stroke Unilateral Spatial Neglect

NCT06690125 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 36

Last updated 2024-11-15

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary aim of this study is to investigate whether multisensory integration (MSI) mechanisms observed in patients with right hemisphere lesions without neglect remain intact compared to patients with Unilateral Spatial Neglect (USN).

This study also allows for a direct comparison between results from paper-based tests and computerized tests, as well as between patients with right hemisphere lesions without neglect and USN patients. The secondary objectives are:

To compare these results in order to obtain a more refined definition of USN at both the unisensory level (as computerized tests are rarely used in hospital settings but have proven effective in diagnosing USN) and the multisensory level (since USN is not generally tested in the auditory modality).

To measure eye movements in all patients in the study, as this can provide useful information for characterizing patient deficits.

Conditions

  • Neglect, Hemispatial
  • Stroke Acute

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Classical and computerized assessment

Patients with right hemisphere stroke will undergo a battery of standardized paper-based tests, as part of routine clinical practice, including cognitive assessments. Additionally, they will complete computerized tests involving the presentation of unisensory (Auditory or Visual Stimuli) and multisensory stimuli (visual and auditory stimuli)
