Abstract

Objective To evaluate whether visual exploration therapy could lead to the recovery of cognitive function and activities of daily living (ADL) of stroke patients with unilateral neglect.Methods From January, 2012 to June, 2014, 24 stroke patients with unilateral neglect were randomly divided into control group (n=12) and observaton group (n=12). The control group received conventional rehabilitation therapy, and the observation group received visual exploration therapy additionally. They were evaluated with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), modified Barthel index (MBI) and Chinese Behavioral Inattention Test-Hong Kong version (CBIT-HK).Results All the scores improved after treatment in both groups (t>5.375, P<0.001), and were higher in the observation group than in the control group (t>2.120, P<0.05), except MMSE (P>0.05).Conclusion Visual exploration therapy could not only facilitate the recovery of unilateral neglect in stroke patients, but also improve their cognitive function and activities of daily living.
