Feasibility And Efficacy Of An iPad-Based Cognitive Rehabilitation Program In Brain Tumor Patients

Stopped early · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Glioma

In brief

This pilot clinical trial studies how well an iPad-based cognitive rehabilitation program works in improving quality of life in patients with grade II-III glioma. An iPad-based cognitive rehabilitation program may help to increase patients cognitive function and quality of life, and may provide doctors with valuable information for optimizing care of patients with brain tumors.
