DE LOS REYES-ARAGON, Carlos José; RODRIGUEZ DIAZ, Melissa Alejandra; SANCHEZ HERRERA, Arturo Enrique y GUTIERREZ RUIZ, Karol. Usefulness of a program of neuropsychological rehabilitation of memory in acquired brain damage. liber. [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.2, pp.181-194. ISSN 1729-4827.
This study evaluated the usefulness of a cognitive and functional rehabilitation of memory program for patients with acquired brain injury. Ten participants with mild- to -moderate cognitive impairment participated in the study; five of them for four months attended a weekly rehabilitation program, while the other five did not receive any neuropsychological intervention. The results showed that the rehabilitation group improved the score in the Wechsler III Memory Scale. Similarly, it was found that the score on the memory scale of failure of the daily life only improved in the group that received rehabilitation. The results suggest that memory rehabilitation program is useful in the treatment of both cognitive and functional sequels resulting from acquired brain damage.
