Spatial Navigation Intervention for Traumatic Brain Injury

"According to data hosted on clinicaltrials.gov, this medical trial is still searching for participants and was initially posted in October 2018 before being modified two years later."

"Affirmative. Clinicaltrials.gov states that this clinical trial, which was first advertised on October 30th 2018, is actively looking for participants. Eighty-four individuals need to be identified from one medical centre."

"This research endeavour requires the recruitment of 84 individuals between 18-55 years old that have sustained a brain injury and display some level of chronicity. Specifically, participants must possess basic computer competencies (use internet/email, mouse and arrow keys), demonstrate functional use of one upper limb for navigating computing systems, suffer from Post Traumatic Amnesia of 24 hours or more and/or have had Glasgow Coma Scale scores below 13."

"The primary objective of this experiment, which will be evaluated at the beginning and one week after commencement, is to determine any changes in score from a flanker inhibitory control and attention test. Secondary goals encompass ascertaining patient experience with the intervention through semi-structured interviews; measuring retention rate (which should ideally approach 1) according to medical status; as well as recording recruitment rate (which should also aim for 1)."

"This investigation has a relatively limited age range of eligibility, spanning 18 to 55 years old. There are 156 trials for individuals below the minimum age and 703 studies available for those over 65."
