Ameliorating Stroke-induced Hemianopia Via Multisensory Training

Sponsor: Wake Forest University Health Sciences

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

This study seeks to determine the extent of the visual capabilities that can be restored in hemianopic stroke patients by a multisensory training technique and evaluate changes in the brain that the training induces. The effectiveness of the technique will be evaluated in two interventional contexts: patients whose blindness is long-standing and stable, and another in which intervention is as soon as possible after the stroke.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Multisensory Training

The procedure involves repeatedly presenting identical visual-auditory stimuli at a single location in the hemianopic field (initially at 45° of eccentricity along the azimuth) while the patient maintains central fixation (0°, 0°). The visual (a 500 ms flash) and auditory (500 ms broadband noise burst) stimuli are in spatial and temporal congruence.

BEHAVIORAL

Unisensory Training

The procedure involves repeatedly presenting identical auditory stimuli (500 ms broadband noise burst) at a single location in the hemianopic field (initially at 45° of eccentricity along the azimuth) while the patient maintains central fixation (0°, 0°).
