Validation of Web-Based Star Cancellation and Line Bisection Tests in Hemiplegic Stroke
Starting soon
Conditions studied: Stroke, Spatial Neglect, Spatial Neglect After Stroke
In brief
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the clinical usability and diagnostic performance of newly developed web-based Star Cancellation and Line Bisection tests in assessing visuospatial neglect in hemiplegic stroke patients. It will also compare these digital tests with conventional paper-and-pencil assessments. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the web-based Star Cancellation and Line Bisection tests accurately distinguish between stroke patients with and without visuospatial neglect? Do digital test parameters (such as completion time, search speed, and search patterns) provide additional clinical information beyond conventional test scores? Researchers will compare the results of the web-based tests with standard paper-and-pencil tests to evaluate their diagnostic accuracy and clinical validity. Participants will: Complete conventional paper-and-pencil Star Cancellation and Line Bisection tests Perform web-based (digital) versions of the same tests using a tablet and stylus Undergo routine clinical and cognitive assessments as part of standard care Provide demographic and clinical information
