COMPuter-assisted Self-training to Improve EXecutive Function
Computer-Assisted Self-Training to Improve Executive Function Versus Unspecific Training in Patients After Stroke, Cardiac Arrest or in Parkinson's Disease: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 2 Oct 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This project explores the effects of specialized computer-based cognitive rehabilitation (CBCR) targeting executive functions in three groups of patients: Stroke, Cardiac Arrest and Parkinson's Disease. The effect of specialized CBCR is compared to generally cognitively stimulating activities on a computer
