Rehabilitation for stroke victims at home using games. NEOFECT Smart Pegboard offers hand training games for patient rehab and recovery.

New Approach in Rehabilitation for Stroke Victims at Home, Smart Pegboard

The Neofect Smart Pegboard offers a new approach to rehabilitation for stroke
victims at home – games. The Smart Pegboard has three interchangeable boards;
standard board, mixed shape board, and pinch board along with the corresponding
pegs that are appropriate for hand training games for patients aged between 3
and 100.

Patients start by choosing a board that best fits their needs. Users are
prompted through a number of different hand training games that vary from easy
to complex games and movements that work on increasing speed and motor skills
challenges.

The Smart Pegboard [https://www.neofect.com/us/smart-pegboard] also allows you
to various options for setup, results, language, volume and whether you are
working your right or left hand.

Lecturer: The Neofect Smart Pegboard uses a gamified approach to hand training.
Through lights and sound, patients are prompted to participate in a variety of
hand training games, from very simple to complex activities, working on
increasing speed and including visual motor challenges.

The Smart Pegboard and related activities are appropriate for patients from ages
3 to 103.

The Smart Pegboard system is made up of three interchangeable boards, including
the standard board, mixed shape board, and pinch board along with the
corresponding pegs.

To get started, choose the board you'd like to use, depending on the needs of
the patient. You can reference the activities and components of each training in
the Smart Pegboard quick start guide that you'll receive with your board.

Let's start by using the standard board. The board can be set for right- or
left-handed use based on need. Plug in the pegboard to get started. Make sure
that you have a way to capture patient data, because once unplugged, patient
outcome information will no longer be available.

You can choose from additional setup options including creating a patient's
session, reviewing results, choosing the patient language, and adjusting volume
to customize your training.

Now that you're all set up, you're ready to start training with the Neofect
Smart Pegboard [https://www.neofect.com/us/smart-pegboard].

The brain may be small but it is the most important organ in human body. Let's see how to prevent various brain injuries.

All about Brain: Structure, Common Diseases, and Injury Prevention

Although we are not yet able to cure all illnesses, the continued development of
cutting-edge medicine is believed to be capable of treating many of the diseases
previously considered untreatable. In keeping with this trend, the average
lifespan of humankind is also increasing.
However, the brain continues to remain the most unknown area of the human body.
Recent studies have revealed many things about the human brain, such as
completing a 'standard brain map' that predicts the risk of cerebral infarction,
but there is still a long way to go in order to be able to say that we conquered
the brain.



Genius Brain
How is the brain of a so-called genius different from the brain of an ordinary
person? We know that the scientist, Albert Einstein died of a ruptured abdominal
aortic aneurysm in 1955. Dr Thomas Harvey of Princeton University Hospital
studied Einstein's brain for 20 years. Many people thought that Einstein's brain
would be different, but despite 20 years of research, there was no big
difference found between his brain and the brain of an ordinary person.



The Brain may be Small but it Is the Most Important Organ
Although the brain only weighs on average about 2% of one's body weight, it
plays a huge role in our body. The brain consists of over 100 billion nerve
cells (Neurons) which are responsible for sending information throughout the
body coordinating all the necessary functions of life.
The brain is divided into the left hemisphere and the right hemisphere. The left
side of the brain is responsible for controlling the right side of your body and
the right side of the brain is responsible for controlling the left side of the
body. The left side of the brain controls tasks that have to do with logic such
as science and math where the right side of the brain controls tasks that have
to do with creativity such as art.
The frontal lobe plays the most important role in the brain, including motor
function, language, thinking and emotional control. The temporal lobe is
responsible for memory, knowledge, and auditory function. The occipital lobe
plays a role in recognizing the visual information of our eyes. And the parietal
lobe is responsible for tasks related to space recognition or mathematical
calculations.

Various Brain Disease
The most common diseases that affect the brain are as follows: Stroke,
Alzheimer's, dementia, Cerebral Palsy, Traumatic Brain Injury, Parkinson's
Disease, and Brain tumors (Brain Cancer).



Habits are More Important than Foods for Brain Injury Prevention
As one age the human brain loses its functionality year after year, therefore it
is very important for you to preserve brain functions when you are young. People
often ask, “What kind of food is best for the brain?” However, the answer is not
food, it is moderate mental stimulation that will help to preserve the brain.
Cognitive exercise, such as taking a cooking class, world puzzles, spot the
difference, is often recommended for 50-60-year-olds in order to prevent
dementia. One of Neofect Rehab Solutions provides collective cognitive exercises
that you can do anywhere at any time. Neofect Cognition
[https://www.neofect.com/en/cognition/] consists of activities that focus on
attention and memory.

To prevent brain diseases that occur in old age, it is essential to manage risk
factors, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia. It is also
important that keep healthy by staying active. If you smoke, you should try to
stop smoking as smoking increases the risk of brain diseases.

Meet this promising cognitive traing software.  Comcog uses computer assisted cognitive rehab along with NEOFECT’s learning algorithm to guide a user through cognitive training based on their skills.

Neofect ComCog: Cognitive Training Tool

Neofect Cognition for Cognitive Training
ComCog [http://www.neofect.com/en/comcog/] is a brain re-training software that
focuses on attention and cognition.

Cognitive training is essential for successful community living and independence
in everyday life. This software has been shown to improve working memory for
users with Alzheimer’s. ComCog has also helped patients with brain injuries
increase their attention span. This June, as we acknowledge Alzheimer’s and
Brain Awareness month (https://www.alz.org/abam/), we’d like to introduce this
new cognitive training software, Neofect Com/Cog.




Cognitive training software ComCog has existed for a number of years in Asia but
has only recently come to the US under the US rehabilitation technology brand,
Neofect, the makers of the Smart Glove and other Smart Rehabilitation products.




Com/cog uses computer assisted cognitive rehab along with Neofect’s learning
algorithm to guide a user through cognitive training based on their skills.
Cognitive skills refer to the intellectual activities that encompass memory,
reasoning, attention and language. Damage to cognitive function can cause
difficulties in ones’ daily life. Promoting brain neuroplasticity is a key
element to the cognitive rehabilitation process after a brain injury.
Neuroplasticity is a concept that states that the brain will essentially rewire
itself to compensate for the area of injury or damage. Cognitive rehabilitation
focuses on the importance of retraining the brain.



After utilizing the ComCog software for a 4-week training period, patients with
traumatic brain injury were shown to improve their attention to more closely
resemble that of their healthy counterparts. This is due to the concept of
neuroplasticity which says that the brain will rewire itself to work even when
parts of it are injured..



In Alzheimer’s dementia patients, a 4-week cognitive training program using
ComCog was shown to significantly increase memory capabilities. Patients were
able to better remember words and objects that had been presented to them
previously and scored higher on tests of orientation and recall.
