Impact of eliminating visual input on sitting posture and head position in a patient with spatial neglect following cerebral hemorrhage: a case report.

 Spatial neglect is a neurocognitive syndrome. Affected individuals pay little or insufficient attention to the space contralateral to the injured cerebral hemisphere, often resulting in or exacerbating disability following an acquired brain injury. Eliminating visual input may increase attention toward the contralesional side of space, and improve symptoms of spatial neglect; however this has never been examined in a clinical setting.
