Treating unawareness after stroke 1 Running Head : MANAGING UNAWARENESS AFTER STROKE
How should stroke patients with poor motor awareness be managed? This question is important because unawareness (or anosognosia) is related to poor rehabilitation and prognosis. This narrative review provides a guide for clinicians and (applied) academics to understanding, assessing and managing anosognosia. Questions addressed are: What is anosognosia? What causes anosognosia? How can anosogno...
متن کاملAnosognosia - for - dyskinesias in PD 1 Running head : ANOSOGNOSIA - FOR - DYSKINESIAS IN PD Why are some Parkinson ’ s disease patients unaware of their dyskinesias ? Paul
Objective: To test the hypothesis that anosognosia-for-dyskinesias in Parkinson’s disease (PD) results from a failure to detect discrepancies between intended and actual movement. Background: PD patients often complain of drug-induced dyskinesias (involuntary movements) less than their carers. This remarkable unawareness is an example of anosognosia (i.e., unawareness of deficits associated wit...

Both conditions were associated with lesions of either hemisphere. Apathy, visual field defect, and impaired picture identification were particularly prominent in anosognosia. A failure to integrate information from one side of the body was regarded as fu...

This review makes a novel contribution, arguing that the ideal empirical tool to assess this question is the metamemory framework. The fact that the metam...
متن کاملModular structure of awareness for sensorimotor disorders: evidence from anosognosia for hemiplegia and anosognosia for hemianaesthesia.
In the present paper, we shall review clinical evidence and theoretical models related to anosognosia for sensorimotor impairments that may help in understanding the normal processing underlying conscious self-awareness. The dissociations between anosognosia for hemiplegia and anosognosia for hemianaesthesia are considered to give important clinical evidence supporting the hypothesis that aware...
