Study Summary

This trial will compare the effects of using the Dynavision D2 tool to improve left neglect in adults with brain injury, versus usual OT treatment.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults with brain injuries who have moderate to severe left neglect, as determined by the Catherine Bergego Scale. Participants must be motivated and able to handle up to three hours of daily therapy including Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy, and Speech Therapy. They should be inpatients on stroke or acute brain injury services at Providence Care Hospital.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests if the Dynavision D2 device can help improve spatial awareness and daily activity performance in those with brain injuries. It's a randomized control trial where some get usual occupational therapy (OT) while others combine OT with sessions using Dynavision D2.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves a non-invasive therapeutic device rather than medication, traditional side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience fatigue or frustration during rehabilitation exercises.

Experimental Treatment

Active Control

Group I: Repetitive Visual Scanning TrainingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Participants will receive 30 minutes of their usual occupational therapy 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.

Group II: Usual TreatmentActive Control1 Intervention

Participants will receive the standard 60 minutes of occupational therapy treatment.

What are the primary goals of this medical investigation?

"The primary outcomes of this research project, which will be measured over a period of 5-6 weeks from baseline, are the changes in Catherine Bergego Scale scores after 10 therapy sessions. Secondary outcomes comprise changes to Letter Cancellation Test and Star Cancellation Test results following 10 and 20 therapeutic interventions respectively. These tests involve the cancellation of verbal and non-verbal stimuli such as letters or stars on paper with varying sizes amidst distracting elements."
