Novel Brain Injury Study Expands Prism Adaptation Treatment to Right-Sided Spatial Neglect
Fast Takes Episode 48
Read the transcript
In this podcast, Research Scientist Timothy Rich, PhD, discusses a new study, the first to show the need to expand the application of prism adaptation treatment for spatial neglect. Dr. Rich was part of a team that discovered prism adaptation therapy was as beneficial for treating right-sided spatial neglect as left-sided spatial neglect in a cohort of individuals with stroke and traumatic and non-traumatic brain injuries. The findings were published in June 2023 in a peer-reviewed article, “Prism Adaptation Treatment for Right-Sided and Left-Sided Spatial Neglect: A Retrospective Case-Matched Study,” in the journal Archives of Rehabilitation Research and Clinical Translation.
Funding source: the Wallerstein Foundation for Geriatric Improvement, the Charles and Ann Serraino Foundation, and Kessler Foundation
