Screening and Rehabilitation of Visual Field Defects in Post-Stroke Patients
Sponsor: Fondazione David Chiossone - Impresa Sociale
Summary
In this study, the investigators will use a wearable device capable of performing this bedside assessment to evaluate the incidence of visual field loss in post-stroke patients. Furthermore, for those with visual field loss, the investigators will investigate whether integrating multisensory audio-visual rehabilitation into the standard physical rehabilitation protocol can help improve visual field loss compared to standard rehabilitation alone.

Interventions
Early multisensory audio-visual stimulation training
Multisensory audio-visual stimulation training (using the device AV DESK Linari Medical) will last four weeks. Through audiovisual stimuli produced by the Av-Desk Flexi device, patients undergo a brain cell training program that compensates for blind spots in their visual field. The recipes regulating the combinations of stimuli are provided daily, under the supervision of a physician, where the data processing unit manages the data from the stimuli provided to the patient, their response to said stimuli, and monitors their position. The follow up visual field test will detect whether early intervention with multisensory audio-visual stimuli can improve visual field loss
Early visual field test
Visual field assessment with wearable devices (PalmScan VF2000) performed at the bedside in post-stroke patients who met the inclusion criteria during their stay in the neurology hospital unit, as soon as they were stabilized. Standard 120-point visual field tests will be performed on the left and right eyes separately, with the following quantification parameters: test duration, fixation losses, false positives, false negatives, points seen, points not seen, relative defects. Patients with a monocular residual perimetric defect of less than 106 points seen out of 124 (equal to 85% of the stimuli presented) and in any case with a defect greater than 12 points if presented in a single quadrant, will be selected for the clinical trial and invited to repeat the same visual field evaluation, using the same wearable devices in the 2-months follow-up.
