“…Fifteen additional RCTs investigating neglect were found that were not included in those reviews (prism adaptation, 2; virtual reality, 2; limb activation, 2; neck vibration with prism adaptation, 1; visual scanning with limb activation, 1; mental practice, 1; repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, 4; and optokinetic stimulation, 2). [471][472][473][474][475][476][477][478][479][480][481][482][483] There is evidence for the efficacy of several top-down and bottom-up approaches in improving both immediate performance and long-term performance on standard neglect tests such as cancellation tests and line bisection tests. * These include half-field eye patching, visual scanning training, prism adaptation, limb activation, optokinetic stimulation, mental imagery (but see the work by Welfringer and colleagues 482 ), and brain stimulation with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, theta burst transcranial magnetic stimulation, or tDCS.…”

e98Purpose-The aim of this guideline is to provide a synopsis of best clinical practices in the rehabilitative care of adults recovering from stroke. Methods-Writing group members were nominated by the committee chair on the basis of their previous work in relevant topic areas and were approved by the American Heart Association (AHA) Stroke Council's Scientific Statement Oversight Committee and the AHA's Manuscript Oversight Committee. The panel reviewed relevant articles on adults using computerized searches of the medical literature through 2014. The evidence is organized within the context of the AHA framework and is classified according to the joint AHA/American College of Cardiology and supplementary AHA methods of classifying the level of certainty and the class and level of evidence. The document underwent extensive AHA internal and external peer review, Stroke Council Leadership review, and Scientific Statements Oversight Committee review before consideration and approval by the AHA Science Advisory and Coordinating Committee. Results-Stroke rehabilitation requires a sustained and coordinated effort from a large team, including the patient and his or her goals, family and friends, other caregivers (eg, personal care attendants), physicians, nurses, physical and occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, recreation therapists, psychologists, nutritionists, social workers, and others. Communication and coordination among these team members are paramount in maximizing the effectiveness

“…The neuropsychological assessment showed left spatial neglect (table 1), with perseveration behavior. 10 Personal neglect was mild, as assessed by tasks verbally requiring to reach, with the right hand, the left hand and other left-sided body parts, 11,12 and by a task requiring to search targets located on the body, 13 when blindfolded. P1, spontaneously and repeatedly, stated that her left hand belonged to her son, obdurately denying it was her own, while ownership of the remaining part of the left upper limb was preserved (table 2A).…”

Multisensory remission of somatoparaphrenic delusion

et al. 2014

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

SummaryThis study investigates whether the rubber hand illusion (RHI) can induce a remission of somatoparaphrenia, a somatic delusion usually following righthemisphere damage, which typically manifests as a defective sense of ownership of one's contralesional body parts. First, we show that patients with somatoparaphrenia can experience a reliable RHI, exhibiting illusory effects similar to those reported by healthy participants. Moreover, synchronous touches applied to the patients' visible disowned left hand (rather than to the rubber hand), and to their right invisible unimpaired hand, induce an immediate self-attribution of the disowned hand, without affecting other sensorimotor or attentional disorders. The higher-level representation of the body concerned with ownership, deranged as a somatic delusion in patients with somatoparaphrenia, is penetrable, and can be restored by multisensory stimulations.
