Prism adaptation can improve contralesional tactile perception in neglect
MARAVITA A; MCNEIL J; MALHOTRA P
NEUROLOGY , 2003, vol. 60, n° 11, p. 1829-1831 Doc n°: 109901 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : AD911 - NEGLIGENCE VISUELLE The authors show that prismatic adaptation can reduce tactile inattention in stroke patients with unilateral neglect. Four patients with visuospatial neglect and tactile extinction underwent 10-minute application of 20 degrees right-shifting prismatic lenses during pointing. This improved contralesional tactile perception in all patients, even for a task requiring no exploration or spatial motor responses. This finding suggests a potential role for prismatic adaptation in the rehabilitation of multiple sensory modalities in patients with neglect.
