Study Summary

This trial will test whether neglect can be improved following Prism Adaptation Training, and if so, what kind of brain damage predicts this improvement.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-90 who've had a right hemisphere stroke within the last month and are suspected of having spatial neglect. They must be able to consent, sit for an hour, point straight ahead, hold a pen with their right hand, and undergo MRI scans. They should not have other conditions affecting testing or training ability.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is looking at how effective Prism Adaptation Therapy is in treating spatial neglect caused by right hemisphere strokes. It aims to identify if brain damage patterns can predict the type of neglect and response to this therapy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves behavioral therapy rather than medication, traditional side effects are not expected; however, participants may experience fatigue or discomfort from sitting during sessions or any standard risks associated with undergoing MRI scans.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Are any new volunteers being welcomed into this research endeavor?

"The clinical trial hosted on clinicialtrials.gov is not currently open to recruitment, as it was last updated on May 16th 2022. Although this particular study has closed its doors for the time being, there are still over a thousand other medical trials actively seeking participants at present."

Answered by AI

To what extent is enrollment in this research project open to the public?

"This research is seeking a cohort of 12 individuals, aged 18 to 90 years old and having sustained an incapacitating stroke. In addition to this medical criterion, potential participants must be able to provide their own consent for the trial; accommodate 10-12 days in rehabilitation or return for ten therapy sessions at Craig H. Neilson Rehabilitation Hospital; remain seated in a wheelchair or other chair for 1 hour; demonstrate unilateral spatial neglect through pointing straight ahead and holding a pen with right hand."

Answered by AI

Does the trial accept participants over four decades of age?

"This study is open to individuals aged 18-90. There are 40 trials available for minors and 1024 clinical studies accessible to those older than 65 years old."
