The Gut-Brain Axis During Neurorehabilitation; Prebiotic Treatment to Alter the Gut Microbiome and Neurologic Symptoms
The aim of this study is to characterize the microbiome of patients undergoing post-acute residential neurorehabilitation compared to community controls and to determine if a dietary fiber, Inulin, can create a shift in the microbiome leading to changes in fatigue and cognition.
Implementation of a Home-based Computerized Cognitive Rehabilitation Program for Patients With ABI
Rationale: Patients with acquired brain injury (ABI) may suffer from persistent cognitive deficits and/or subjective cognitive complaints, especially in the domains of attention and working memory. Cognitive deficits are associated with anxiety and depression and may affect social participation and health-related quality of life (HR-QoL). Approximately 25% of the patients …
Evaluation of the Karman Line Memory Strategy Training
Rationale: Acquired brain injury (ABI) often results in memory deficits that can have a big impact on social and vocational functioning of patients. Rehabilitation treatment of memory dysfunction consists of optimizing memory performance by using effective compensation strategies. Several effective memory-strategy training programs have been developed. However, these often contain …
Driving Simulator Training For Adults With Acquired Brain Injuries
The aim of this project is to prepare adults with acquired brain injuries for on-road driving by using the driving simulator and increase participant's comfort level, confidence, and independence within their occupation of driving. The occupational therapy faculty are interested in identifying the impact driving simulation training has on individuals …
Stimulus Equivalence Learning in Acquired Brain Injury.
Stimulus Equivalence Learning (SEL) is a form of learning in which stimuli (such as words, pictures, or sounds) become linked to one another in memory, even though this specific connection has not been directly taught. In a typical SEL task, two relations are taught explicitly (A→B and A→C), and the …
Group Music Therapy for Acquired Brain Injury
The study aims to analyse the impact of music therapy-based treatment on the comfort and well-being of patients with acquired brain injury (ABI). To achieve this objective, it is proposed to validate and implement a music therapy-based assessment and treatment protocol. The protocol will be tested in a pilot sample …
Motor Performance Improvement After Visual Rehabilitation
Acquired brain injury" refers to brain damage that impacts neurological processing, making daily activities challenging and often causing vision issues like binocular dysfunction, oculomotor problems, and visual field loss. In Spain, visual rehabilitation is limited, although it is more common in other countries. These patients generally need an interdisciplinary approach …
Goal Management Training (GMT) for Improvement of Cognitive Control Function After Acquired Brain Injury
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate predictors of treatment outcome, and the effect of individual treatment components of Goal Management Training (GMT) for improvement of cognitive control function in people with acquired brain injury (ABI). Primary aim: To identify demographic, clinical and cognitive predictors of treatment response …
Biofeedback Training for Hemianopia
This is a prospective study that compares biofeedback training on the microperimetry (BT) to a control group in patient s with hemianopia. The patients receive 5 sessions of 20 minutes to stimulate with light and sound the brain in using the best residual area on the visual fields post-brain injury …
Robotic Vs. Traditional Verticalization in Patients with Severe Acquired Brain Injury: a Randomized Controlled Trial
In the rehabilitation project for patients with severe Acquired Brain Injury (sABI), it is essential to include exercises that facilitate the recovery of the upright position (or verticalization). Recently, tilt-table equipped with the robot-assisted lower limbs cyclic mobilization has been proposed as a safe and suitable device for accelerating the …
