Cognitive rehabilitation aims to help recover mental functions impaired by brain injury through restoration, substitution, and restructuring approaches. Computerized cognitive rehabilitation (CACR) uses computer programs and exercises to retrain impaired cognitive skills. It provides personalized feedback and reinforcement through tasks of increasing difficulty. Research shows CACR improves attention, memory, and executive functions in patients with brain injuries, learning disabilities, schizophrenia, substance abuse disorders, depression, and multiple sclerosis compared to control groups. CACR appears as effective as traditional face-to-face rehabilitation with similar costs. Issues include variability in brain injury characteristics and rehabilitation programs across studies.

Cerebellum its function and releveance in psychiatryHarsh shaH
The cerebellum receives inputs from many brain regions and is involved in motor control and coordination. Recent research also suggests it plays a role in cognition and certain psychiatric disorders. Studies have found cerebellar abnormalities such as reduced volume and blood flow in autism, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, and anxiety disorders which may contribute to symptoms. Cerebellar lesions can cause motor signs as well as cognitive and psychiatric issues, referred to as cerebellar-cognitive affective syndrome.

The WISC-IV is an individually administered intelligence test for children published in 2003 as an update to previous versions. It yields an overall intelligence score and index scores in verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, working memory, and processing speed based on 10 core subtests. The test was standardized on a stratified sample of 2,200 children aged 6 to 16. It addresses some limitations of previous versions through improved sample representation, updated materials, and a focus on the CHC model of intelligence while still incorporating a general intelligence factor. Comparisons to other tests like the SB5 show many similarities in approach but some differences in subtests and composite scores.

Neuropsychiatric Manifestations of Huntington Disease (2021)Zahiruddin Othman
This document discusses the neuropsychiatric manifestations of Huntington's disease. Huntington's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder caused by a defective gene on chromosome 4. It is characterized by motor, cognitive, and psychiatric symptoms. Psychiatric symptoms include depression, irritability, anxiety, and psychosis. Neuropathology involves gradual atrophy of the striatum due to neuronal loss. Diagnosis is based on family history, motor symptoms, and neuropsychological assessment. Management involves a multidisciplinary approach including pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions to treat motor, cognitive, and psychiatric symptoms.
This document discusses novel neurotransmitters beyond the classical ones. It describes nitric oxide, carbon monoxide, hydrogen sulfide, endocannabinoids, eicosanoids, and neurosteroids. Nitric oxide is produced in neurons from arginine and acts through cGMP. It is involved in long term potentiation and erectile function. Carbon monoxide regulates olfaction and vasodilation. Hydrogen sulfide is produced from cysteine and acts as a gaseous messenger. Endocannabinoids like anandamide signal retrogradely through CB1 receptors. Eicosanoids are derived from arachidonic acid. Neurosteroids are synthesized in the brain from cholesterol and include allopregn
This document discusses intelligence, IQ, IQ tests, and methods for estimating pre-morbid IQ. It defines intelligence and outlines several theories of intelligence.

Stroke cognitive deficits and rehabilitation dr venugopal kochiyilmrinal joshi
Cognitive impairments are common after stroke, impacting up to 70% of patients, but are often underdiagnosed and untreated. They affect domains like attention, memory, language, and executive functions. Assessment tools can help identify impairments, but treatment approaches lack strong evidence. Cognitive rehabilitation aims to retrain or compensate for deficits through strategies, external aids, and therapy targeting specific impairments, though improvements often remain limited.
This document provides an overview of various neuropsychological tests used to assess orientation, attention, processing speed, working memory, and other cognitive domains. It describes several common tests, including digits forward and backward, Corsi's block tapping test, symbol span, sentence repetition, and continuous performance test. It explains what cognitive abilities each test measures and common impairments seen with various neurological conditions. The document also discusses factors that can affect memory span and provides examples and administration details for several tests of attention, processing speed, and executive function.
This document discusses the history and modern practice of surgery for psychiatric disorders. It begins by covering the early history of psychosurgery dating back to the 1930s. It then discusses the development of stereotactic surgery and various ablative psychosurgical procedures used in the 1940s-1950s such as prefrontal leucotomy. The introduction of psychotropic drugs in the 1950s reduced the use of ablative psychosurgery. Modern techniques discussed include cingulotomy, anterior capsulotomy, limbic leucotomy, vagus nerve stimulation, and deep brain stimulation. Specific applications to disorders like obsessive-compulsive disorder, depression, and Tourette's syndrome are also summarized.
This document discusses different types of agnosia, which are disorders that cause inability to recognize sensory stimuli despite normal sensory perception. It defines agnosia and describes its classification into visual, auditory and tactile modalities. It provides details on visual processing pathways and disorders of the ventral "what" and dorsal "where" streams. Specific visual agnosias discussed include apperceptive, associative, integrative, prosopagnosia, color agnosia and simultanagnosia. Neuroanatomical bases and diagnostic criteria for each are outlined.
This document discusses the anatomy and functions of the frontal lobe. It begins with the neuroanatomy of the frontal lobe, describing its sulci, fissures and gyri. It then covers the prefrontal cortex in more detail, describing its functional areas including the dorsolateral, orbital and medial prefrontal cortex. The document also discusses the motor cortex, its primary, premotor and supplementary areas. It covers tests used to assess frontal lobe functions and describes frontal lobe syndromes and its involvement in psychiatric illnesses and epilepsy.
This document discusses the anatomy and functional areas of the frontal lobe and their relation to psychiatry. It begins with the anatomical structures of the frontal lobe including the lateral, medial and orbital surfaces. It then covers the primary functional areas - primary motor cortex, premotor cortex, supplementary motor cortex, frontal eye fields, Broca's area, and the prefrontal cortex including dorsolateral, dorsomedial and orbital regions. Neuropsychiatric disorders are discussed like frontal lobe syndrome, traumatic brain injury, frontotemporal dementia, and the relationships between the frontal lobe and conditions like schizophrenia, depression, ADHD, OCD, and alcohol use. Assessment techniques are also covered.
Interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) focuses on the importance of interpersonal relationships in determining behavior and psychopathology. IPT aims to change interpersonal functioning by encouraging more effective communication, emotional expression, and understanding of behavior in relationships. The major goal is improving relationships to also improve symptoms and life. In IPT, therapists conduct therapy in three phases - initial session to identify problem areas, intermediate sessions using strategies for the identified problem area, and termination.
The document discusses the concept of neuroplasticity, or the brain's ability to change and adapt as a result of experiences. It describes how neural pathways are formed and strengthened through mechanisms like axonal sprouting and synaptic pruning. Experiences drive which connections are kept and which are pruned away. The brain remains plastic into adulthood, as evidenced by cases of recovery from brain damage and phantom limb pain. Thinking itself can induce neuroplastic changes, as cognitive therapies have been shown to alter brain activity patterns similarly to medications for conditions like OCD. Overall, the document outlines how learning, experiences, and even thoughts can physically change the brain's structure and connections throughout life.
This document discusses strategies and technologies for recovering cognitive functions lost due to traumatic brain injury (TBI). It notes that TBI survivors can experience decades of debilitation from attention deficits, memory impairments, and executive dysfunction. While severity of injury correlates somewhat to impairment, the link is weak. Even one year post-injury, many TBI patients still have unmet cognitive needs. The document advocates strategies that both compensate for losses and recover functions, using knowledge, technology, systems, processes, retraining, stem cells, and pharmacological and learning enhancements. Computerized cognitive training alone is not a complete solution but can provide effective tools when used by clinicians. Challenges include ensuring training gains transfer to real life and addressing

Computer-assisted cognitive training may help patients affected by several illnesses alleviate their cognitive deficits, or healthy people improve their mental performance. The talk presents a web-accessible system, called MS-rehab, developed specifically for the cognitive rehabilitation of patients suffering from multiple sclerosis, but usable also in other contexts. MS-rehab embeds an AI-based mechanism that adapts the difficulty of cognitive training exercises to the trainee’s performance. The AI-based mechanisms proved to be superior to a mechanism designed by medical experts in a live experiment.
1) The study examined whether symptom change in computerized cognitive behavioral therapy (cCBT) for depression is mediated by changes in cognitive skills, and whether dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) activity as measured by pupil reactivity moderates this process.
2) The results found that symptom change was partially mediated by acquisition of cognitive skills, and that pupil reactivity moderated the effect of treatment on skill acquisition, such that those with low-moderate pupil reactivity showed greater skill improvements.
3) For participants with low-moderate pupil reactivity, skill change mediated subsequent reductions in depression symptoms, but this was not seen for those with high pupil reactivity, providing evidence that pupil reactivity
Assistive Cognitive Technology for EldersVivek Misra
Assistive technology aims to improve the functional capabilities of people with disabilities or cognitive impairments. As the population ages, cognitive assistive technologies and cognitive rehabilitation interventions become increasingly important. Cognitive enhancement therapy combines computer-based cognitive training with group therapy to improve functions like attention, memory, and problem solving. Neuromodulation techniques combined with cognitive enhancement therapy may prolong the effects. Neuroplasticity enables the brain to compensate for injury and disease through new connections formed via experience-dependent rehabilitation programs. Both low-tech and high-tech memory aids can be used.
Cluster analysis poster by Gracey and MalleyAndrew Bateman
I am pleased to be able to share more work that was presented this year at WFNR Neuropsychological Rehabilitation Special Interest Group. This is an example of the more technical research work done in our team: this poster is a good summary of a paper recently published, illustrating how we are continuing to try to grasp how best to assess and describe the needs of our service users.
Stimulant medication is the most common treatment for ADD/ADHD, but about 60-65% of cases persist into adulthood. Short-acting stimulants have the highest abuse potential, with 46% of adults with ADHD using them and nearly 80% of patients abusing them. There is interest in alternative treatments due to concerns about side effects and stigma of behavioral therapy. Recent research has investigated brain training games to improve cognition, with some studies finding they can enhance memory, attention, and executive functions in both young and old. The proposed study will examine whether brain training games targeted at improving attention are effective for adults with ADD/ADHD by comparing pre- and post-training Stroop test attention scores between those
Internship Progress in Clinical Mental Health CounselingJacob Stotler
An internship in neurofeedback treatment of trauma involved several components over 100 hours. The intern established a brain training pamphlet and parent support group. Reviews and internship goals were completed. Research on brain training treatments was compiled. Training in a brainwave software program was undertaken. Records and other documentation like a procedures and intake manual were established. The lab space was also organized. The internship utilized an integrative approach including neurofeedback, counseling, psychoeducation and skills training to address trauma's effects on cognition, behavior and physiology from a multimodal perspective.
This document discusses cognitive rehabilitation therapy (CRT). It began in the 1920s to help veterans with brain injuries relearn cognitive skills. CRT aims to restore lost cognitive functions or teach compensatory strategies. An interdisciplinary team may provide CRT to help those with conditions like stroke, dementia, TBI regain independence. Occupational therapists play a key role in CRT by helping clients relearn skills through functional activities to improve daily living. Strong evidence shows CRT's effectiveness, especially when provided through interdisciplinary collaboration.
Three well-designed studies found that group cognitive behavioral interventions for individuals at risk of panic disorder can effectively reduce panic and agoraphobic symptoms. The strongest treatment gains came from multi-session group programs that included education, breathing retraining, exposure exercises, and cognitive restructuring. A single-day workshop format was also effective in reducing panic symptoms and risk of panic disorder onset at 6-month follow up. However, brief interventions and unguided online self-help programs showed limited effectiveness. Comprehensive 8-week group treatments or single-day workshops including exposure techniques are recommended.

This summary provides the key points from the document in 3 sentences:
The study investigated whether improvements in muscle strength and aerobic capacity (VO2peak) from progressive resistance training (PRT) mediated improvements in cognitive function for older adults with mild cognitive impairment. The results showed that PRT significantly improved upper body, lower body, and whole body strength more than a sham exercise control. Higher strength scores after PRT, but not changes in VO2peak, were significantly associated with improvements in cognition. Greater lower body strength gains partially mediated the effect of PRT on improving global cognition, but not executive function.
The document introduces recent advances in rehabilitation technology and provides an overview of 11 devices. It discusses how these technologies can provide real-time feedback, objective measures of progress, and engaging rehabilitation. The technologies discussed include the Balancemaster and Biodex Balance System for balance training, Neuromove and Lokomat for gait rehabilitation, and Armeo for arm rehabilitation. Evidence is presented showing that these technologies have been effective for conditions like stroke and concussions when used as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation program.
CBT skills usage after receiving internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (iCBT) was assessed to understand its role in maintaining treatment effects. 77 participants completed measures of depression, anxiety and functioning before, immediately after, and 3 months after iCBT. Symptoms significantly improved post-treatment and were maintained at follow-up. At follow-up, participants reported frequently using cognitive and behavioral CBT skills. While CBT skills usage predicted immediate outcomes, it did not predict maintenance of effects at 3-month follow-up, suggesting other factors may be involved in long-term outcomes.
The document discusses the use of mental practice in occupational therapy for stroke patients. It defines mental practice as the symbolic rehearsal of a physical activity through mental imagery without physical movement. The document reviews the types and effectiveness of mental imagery, and discusses several studies that show mental practice can improve affected limb function for stroke patients when combined with physical therapy. It concludes that mental practice is a promising rehabilitation approach but more research is still needed to establish guidelines and understand its long-term benefits.

The facial nerve, also known as cranial nerve VII, is one of the 12 cranial nerves originating from the brain. It's a mixed nerve, meaning it contains both sensory and motor fibres, and it plays a crucial role in controlling various facial muscles, as well as conveying sensory information from the taste buds on the anterior two-thirds of the tongue.

Hypertension and it's role of physiotherapy in it.Vishal kr Thakur
This particular slides consist of- what is hypertension,what are it's causes and it's effect on body, risk factors, symptoms,complications, diagnosis and role of physiotherapy in it.
This slide is very helpful for physiotherapy students and also for other medical and healthcare students.
Here is summary of hypertension -
Hypertension, also known as high blood pressure, is a serious medical condition that occurs when blood pressure in the body's arteries is consistently too high. Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against the walls of blood vessels as the heart pumps it. Hypertension can increase the risk of heart disease, brain disease, kidney disease, and premature death.

2. What is cognitive rehabilitation ?
Treatment designed to help people recover from mental functions that are
lost or impaired following a brain injury .
Different rehabilitation approaches:
1. Restoration: Cognitive training and retraining strategies meant to
strengthen and restore one function
2. Substitution: Compensatory devices that help to replace a lost function
3. Restructuring:
Environmental restructuring: Changing family demands placed on the
individual
Using educational and vocational facilities
Following the patients in their environment (Sohlberg & Mateer, 2001)
2
3. What is not
• Cognitive rehabilitation concerns information processing
Cognitive rehabilitation = cognitive retraining = cognitive remediation
• Psychotherapy influences patient’s image on self and surroundings
• Psychoactive drugs targets brain receptors
3
4. What is computerised cognitive
rehabilitation (CACR) ?
A computer is used as a high tech tool for retraining impaired cognitive skills of
neurologically- and psychiatrically-based problems (Bracy, 1999)
Requirements: clinically stable patients -able to concentrate 20 min
accurate cognition assessment
The key elements include:
1. Intrinsic motivation –task performance is in itself rewarding
2. Guided practice in computer-based training exercises
3. Supportive, one-on-one ,training sessions
4. Task engagement through contextualization
5. Personalized feedback
6. Positive reinforcement (Medalia, J & Revheim, 1999; Castelnuovo, Prione, Liccione, &
Cioffi,2003)
4
5. Historical Development
Introduction of game-like programs in cognitive rehabilitation of brain-injured
individuals (Lynch,1983)
First software program designed to train
Attention Reaction time Perceptual motor skills
Memory Problem solving Reasoning (Lynch, 1992).
• Program software designed to exercise visual perception, attention, and
memory capacity (Gianutsos, 1992)
• NeurXercise: Cognitive training videogame-like program for individuals
suffering from brain-injuries (Podd & Seeling, 1992)
A battery of interrelated cognitive-training set of programs (Bracy, 1983)
developed into a Psychological Software Service (PSS)
o Neuroscience Center of Indianapolis (NSC): First evidence-based cognitive
rehabilitation clinic
5
6. Building Block Theory
The training tasks unfold in a hierarchically fashion.
Level 1: Exercises address basic cognitive processes, such as:
- Receptors, nerve pathways and primary cortical areas function
properly
Level 15: Exercises grow in complexity and build on previous levels.
-integrate perceptions
Level 24:
-retrieve stored information (Bracy O.L., 1986)
6
7. Computer assisted cognitive
rehabilitation clinic
NeuroScience Center of Indianapolis (NSC) clinical services are based
on PSSCogRehab program developed by Dr. Bracy
It contains 8 software modules; 64 computerized tasks.
Applications: Assessment, diagnostics, report writing , and
rehabilitation therapy
7
8. Empirical support for PSSCogRehab
Brain injuries
o Patients with severe closed head injury received 20 hours over 4 to 6 weeks
o PSSCogRehab displayed significant improvements from pre- to post-
treatment and in comparaison to non-computerised control group
o (Batchelor, Shores, Marosszeky, Sandanam, & Lovarini, 1988).
o Patients with brain injury received CACR /Control matched group received
only speech and occupational therapies.
o Both higher on post neuropsychological measures on attention, memory, visuo-
spatial ability, and problem solving.
o No differences between groups (Chen, Thomas, Glueckauf, & Bracy, 1997)
Learning
o 80 children
o Computer assisted programs for education and cognitive rehabilitation
targeting intellectual functioning (9 weeks)
o Significant advancement on problem solving skills, attention, and visuo-
spatial tests (Bracy, Oakes, Cooper, Watkins, Brown, & Jewell, 1999)
8
9. Empirical support for PSSCogRehab
Schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder:
o N=65 ; randomly assigned
Experimental group: Computer-based training on attention, memory,
and executive functions & work therapy (i.e. paid work with supportive
aids)
control group: Only work therapy
Measures: Cognitive abilities & feedback on work performance
Experimental group improved on WM, affect recognition, and
executive function
1 year follow-up
o Maintanance: WM, affect recognition and executive functioning
o Increased value on job market
(Bell, Bryson, Greig, Corcoran, & Wexler, 2001; Bell, Zito, Greig, & Wexler, 2008).
9
10. Website-based cognitive
rehabilitation
Neuropsycholine (NPO)
o Internet-based application for assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of
injury
o Upgrades are automatic
o Subscribers have unlimited use of the software to assess, diagnose, write
clinical reports and treat an unlimited number of patients
Challenging Our Minds was developed for children
http://www.challenging-our-minds.com/tour/sample1/t03t01.php
Currently used for rehabilitation treatment in over 300 facilities
o 4 US Military Bases and 5US Veteran's Administration Medical Centers
10
11. CACR randomised controlled trials
Alzheimer’s Disease (N= 14 mildly cognitive impaired)
o 10 X 30 minutes of interactive computerized training for memory of
objects and routes in a standard residence
o Results: superior performance than control group-chat with a
psychologist (Schreiber, Schweizer, Lutz ,Kalveram, & Jäncke, 1999)
• Attention (N = 77 first grade with ADD symptoms)
o Captain’s Log program: 36 exercises - auditory and visual sustained
attention and impulse control
o Results: significantly less attention problems than control (Rabiner, Desiree,
Skinner, & Malone, 2010).
• ADHD ( N = 4 severe ADHD)
o 64 training sessions with Captain’s Log
o Decreased hyperactive behaviour (Slate, Meyer, Burns, & Montgomery, 1998).
11
12. CACR randomised controlled trials
Substance-abuse disorders
o Residential care patients (N=160; randomly assigned)
o CACR plus standard treatment condition OR computer-based typing
tutorial plus standard treatment.
o Follow up at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months.
o Results: CACR group were more engaged in treatment
Adherence to treatment was superior and
Longer abstinence time (Fals Stewart &Lam, 2010)
Opioid-dependent outpatients
o Interactive program therapy plus with voucher-based contingency OR
only therapy implemented by clinician
o Results: Improvement compared to only therapy implemented by clinician
(Bickel, Marsch, Buchhalter, & Badger, 2008)
12
13. CACR randomised controlled trials
Depression (N=12 with recurrent MDD)
o Computerized treatment (first-time used; Elgamal et al, 2007).
o Results: Improvement on attention, verbal learning, memory, psychomotor
speed and executive function compared to healthy control group
o However, depressive symptoms persisted over the trial
Multiple sclerosis (mild disabilities)
o Results: Treatment group (CACR for attention, information processing, and
executive functions) performed better than control group (no
rehabilitation program) after 3 months (Mattioli, Chiara, Deborah ,Giovanni, &
Ruggero, 2010)
13
14. CACR versus face-to-face
rehabilitation
Study comparing CACR and face-to-face rehabilitation
Target: attention, reaction time, learning, visuospatial skills, and problem
solving
Control: age, gender, education, dominant hand, IQ, and time elapsed since
injury
Results: no differences on living without anybody ‘s help, driving, and
school/home return
Study also examined the cost: cost was similar for both groups.
Time was longer for CACR group and cost per hour was higher for FTF
group (Schoenberg, Ruwe, Dawson, McDonald, Houston, & Forducey, 2008)
14
15. Issues
Brain injured patients with cognitive deficits need clear instructions;
unfriendliness in software may reinforce the patient's maladaptive
behaviour and affect the rate of learning
Engaging clients in learning tasks can be quite challenging:
schizophrenia impacts motivation (Schoenberg, Ruwe, Dawson, McDonald,
Houston, & Forducey, 2008)
Methodological issues in brain injuries research : variability in
preinjury characteristics of the sample, severity and site of injury, time
between injury moment and beginning of treatment ;
Variability in data collections: intervention variability in terms of
frequency, intensity, and duration.
15
16. CACR and computer-assisted
psychotherapy
Commonalities:
Assessment procedure
Treatment based on learning theory, cognitive psychology, neuropsychology
Addressing the emotional state that may interfere with
rehabilitation process
Differences:
-Rehab: treatment involve exercises from occupational domain designed to address fine
motor manipulation, manipulations of blocks into various pattern, visual-spatial
analysis
-Psychotherapy: face-to-face interventions, strategies focus on changing how you think
and behave.
