About this trial

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.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Patients aged 18 to 99 years with stroke (excluding isolated cerebellar, brainstem, or spinal cord strokes), admitted to Neurology in IRCCS San Martino Polyclinic Hospital with the ability to understand and sign the informed consent for study participation.

Mobility of at least one upper limb.

Disqualifiers

Presence of cognitive impairment (with an MMSE score less than 24), which limits the understanding of the informed consent or the ability to perform the test.

Difficulty moving both upper limbs.

Presence of ocular comorbidity that could affect visual field assessment before stroke.

Presence of fluent aphasia, neglect, or head and gaze deviation.
