Objective : This study aims to investigate the effect of listening to music for the reduction of unilateral neglect in stroke patients. Methods : This study used a single subject (A-B) design for a stroke patient with unilateral neglect. The subject was trained for 12 sessions in total. Unilateral neglect was measured using a line bisection test and catherine bergego scale. Results : The line bisection test showed decreased mean error scores of treatment period(B) compared with baseline period(A). and catherine bergego scale showed slightly decreased total scores of treatment period(B) compared with baseline period(A). Conclusion : The listening to music showed a beneficial effect for the reduction of unilateral neglect.

Objective : The aim of this study was to identify correlation between KF-NAP and Pencil-Paper test(Line bisection test, Letter cancellation, Albert's test) and to determine the high sensitive assessment tool for spatial neglect. Method : Thirty-two stroke patients who admitted to an inpatient rehabilitation unit at the medical center in Seoul from September, 2014 to September, 2015 were included in our research. They all have spatial neglect (male=19, female=13, the average age 61.8). KF-NAP and Pencil-Paper test were performed within 7 days. The detection of spatial neglect was analyzed by total scores of each assessments. Results : The highest sensitivity assessments of spatial neglect was KF-NAP. The detection of spatial neglect through KF-NAP was 93.8% (Line bisection test 53.1, Letter cancellation 53.1%, Albert's test 37.5%). Line bisection test (r=.430), Letter cancellation(r=.641), Albert's test(r=.398) and KF-NAP scores had significant correlation(p<0.05). Conclusion : KF-NAP is higher sensitive in comparison with Pencil-Paper test for detection of spatial neglect as the assessment tool of spatial neglect during activities daily livings of patients and neglect severity could be assessed with KF-NAP. Therefore, KF-NAP is recommended for assessment of spatial neglect.

임상적으로 음성변화를 주소로 내원하는 환자들 중에 성대발적이 편측에만 국한된 경우가 드물게 있다. 그러나 현재까지 편측 성대발적에 대한 문헌 보고나 연구발표가 미비한 실정이었다. 이에 저자들이 96년 7월부터 97년 8월까지 연세대학교 의과대학 영동세브란스병원 및 세브란스병원에서 Videolaryngoscopy상 편측 성대발적 소견을 보인 6례에 대하여 조직병리학적 진단과 임상적 고찰을 시행하였다. (중략)

Objective : We tested the effect of mirror treatment on patients with and without unilateral neglect over a period of 4 weeks. We also wanted to know the effect of mirror treatment with regards to improving upper extremity function and dealing with activities of daily living. Methods : Subjects were 10 hemiplegia patients with unilateral neglect and 10 hemiplegia patients without unilateral neglect. They visited the department of occupational therapy. We performed mirror treatment for 30 minutes, 5 times a week for 4 weeks. We used Albert Test to compare our results from before and after the treatment, Fugl-Meyer motor function Assessment(FMA) and Box & Block Test(BBT) for upper extremity function, and Functional Independence Measure(FIM) for activities of daily living. Results : The results showed that mirror treatment had an effect on stroke patients with unilateral neglect. The treatment also had an effect on upper extremity function and activities of daily living regardless of unilateral neglect. Conclusion : The mirror treatment showed improvements on upper extremity function and activities of daily life as well as a reduction in the unilateral neglect after a stroke. In conclusion, the mirror treatment is useful for recovering function and improvement and for helping the patients complete activities of daily living.

Spatial neglect is a neurological disorder following stroke, a lesion that usually affects the right hemisphere, fail to process or attention on the contralateral side of body and space. Functional neuroimaging studies report that spatial neglect is associated with lesions of large middle cerebral artery, perisylvian network and attention network. Spatial neglect is associated with a poor outcome. For optimal diagnosis and intervention, Types and theories of spatial neglect should be considered, in addition to clinical assessment with the conventional test and functional test. The treatment for spatial neglect could be consist of top-down approaches and bottom-up approaches. Recent trends in rehabilitation intervention for spatial neglect have reported prism adaptation.

This study was aimed to investigate the effects of neck extensor vibration stimulation on neglect and balance of stroke patients. Patients diagnosed with stroke were selected according to select the study target, 10 patients with experimental group with traditional occupational therapy and neck extensor vibration, and 10 patients with control group with traditional occupational therapy and neglect therapy for 30 minutes per each session 5 times a week for total 8 weeks. As a result of the study, comparison of two groups after the intervention showed that the experimental group had a more significant on the neglect and balance than the control group(p<.05). These result demonstrate that neck extensor vibration stimulation for the effective of neglect and balance in stroke patients, therefore is expected to be useful in rehabilitative therapy.

Purpose : To identify the correlation between CBS and pencil and paper test, and to test the sensitivity of above tests about unilateral neglect. Mostly used tool of pencil and paper test is line bisection and albert test. CBS is behavioral neglect test. Methods : The subjects of study were 44 stroke patients with left hemiplegia. Data were analyzed for Pearson correlation, paired t-test and ANOVA using SPSS program. The significance level was ${\alpha}<.01$. Results : The results of the study was as follow: 1. CBS had a significant correlation of line bisection and Albert test. 2. CBS was more sensitive than the pencil and paper in unilateral neglect. 3. CBS had high correlations with ADL than the pencil and paper test. Conclusion : The result showed that CBS was more useful than a pencil and paper test to distinguish unilateral neglect and available to diagnose anosognosia. Therefore, it should be considered applying CBS to inspect and cure unilateral neglect.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of video observation training on neglect and ability to perform activities of daily living of stroke patients. Methods : Patients diagnosed with stroke were selected as subjects according to criteria to select the research targets. The additional video observation training besides OT and PT was carried out to 15 patients in an experimental group and sham therapy besides OT and PT was performed to 15 patients in a control group. Line-bisection test were conducted to compare the neglect before and after therapy intervention and FIM was conducted to compare the ability to perform the activities of daily living. Results : The result of this study that we found out that degree of neglect in an experimental group where video observation training was carried out improved neglect and the ability to perform activities of daily living. Conclusion : The video observation training the video observation training is expected to be useful in clinics.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to verify the effects of auditory stimulus using music on unilateral neglect in patients with stroke. Methods : This study used a single subject (ABA) design. The subject who showed unilateral neglect caused by stroke received auditory stimulus using music for 60 minutes per sessions. A total of 20 sessions were conducted. The unilateral neglect was measured by the Star cancellation test and Line bisection test during each session, and Catherine Bergego Scale was used to evaluate the degree of unilateral neglect in daily life pre-and post-test. Also, Positive Affect and Negative Affect Schedule was used to test subject's emotional status. Results : During the intervention period, the results of the Star cancellation test and Line bisection test showed the trend of reduction of unilateral neglect symptom and the effects of intervention were maintained after intervention. After intervention, the results of CBS indicated decreased unilateral neglect symptom in activities of daily living and the results of PANAS indicated increased positive affect. Conclusions : The result of this study indicate that auditory stimulus has a positive effect on the unilateral neglect, and may be considered as alternative choice in clinical occupational therapy for reducing unilateral neglect.
