    Nyckelord :Visual neglect; tactile neglect; premotor neglect; perceptual neglect; bisection tasks; darkness; tactile exploration; right hand use; right hemisphere activation; three-dimensionality; figure-ground contrast; chronic;

    Sammanfattning : Neglect patients typically fail to report, respond, or orient to information presented in locations further away from the side of the brain lesion. Neglect is most often reported after acute stroke, and is more severe and more frequent after right hemisphere damage. LÄS MER

    Nyckelord :haptics; Neglect; Outcome Measures; Paresis; Rehabilitation; Stroke; Virtual Reality;

    Sammanfattning : Aims: The purpose of this thesis was to investigate the effects of Virtual Reality technology and haptics for stroke rehabilitation. Aims were to assess motor training in the so called chronic phase after stroke and to evaluate whether any improvement detected in the VR environment is reflected in daily life. LÄS MER
