Summary

Hemispatial neglect is one of the most frequent and disabling sequelae after a stroke, particularly following right-hemisphere lesions. Its prevalence ranges from 25% to 80% and is associated with poorer functional outcomes, increased risk of falls, prolonged hospital stays, and lower rates of discharge to home. In response to these challenges, rehabilitation technologies have emerged as promising tools, especially during the subacute phase of stroke, a critical period for neuroplasticity. The MYRO® device-an adjustable interactive screen that enables intensive, task-oriented training-has shown benefits in promoting visual scanning, midline crossing, and sensorimotor integration through personalized exercises with constant feedback.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of MYRO® combined with conventional occupational therapy in patients with left hemispatial neglect secondary to subacute stroke. A randomized clinical trial will be conducted with 30 participants assigned to two groups: conventional occupational therapy (OT-C) and occupational therapy plus rehabilitation technology using MYRO® (OT-M). Both groups will receive interventions for four weeks, with assessments at baseline, at the end of the protocol, and at a six-week follow-up. Outcome measures will include the NIHSS, FIM, Catherine Bergego Scale, Cancelation Bells Test, and Line Bisection Test.

It is expected that the use of MYRO® will enhance visuospatial attention toward the left hemifield and accelerate functional recovery compared with conventional treatment alone. The results could provide relevant evidence supporting the integration of interactive technology into neurofunctional rehabilitation within the Argentine context.
