Dynamic Auditory Cueing for Spatial Neglect in Stroke
The Effect of Dynamic Auditory Cueing on Spatial Neglect in Patients With Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 23 Jul 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Spatial neglect is a common condition after stroke and can make it difficult for people to pay attention to one side of space. This problem can negatively affect daily activities and functional independence. This study aims to evaluate whether dynamic auditory cueing for spatial neglect (DAC-SN) can improve spatial neglect in people with stroke. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group receives conventional rehabilitation, while the other group receives conventional rehabilitation combined with dynamic auditory cueing. Dynamic auditory cueing uses moving sounds to guide attention toward the affected side. The intervention is applied for about ten minutes per day, five days a week, for four weeks. Spatial neglect and functional outcomes are assessed using standardized clinical tests and scales at baseline and at predefined time points during and after the intervention. The results of this study may provide evidence for the use of auditory-based approaches in the rehabilitation of spatial neglect after stroke.
