Abstract
DEL-CUVILLO-YGES, María et al. Systematic review on the effectiveness of cognitive multisensory rehabilitation. Anales Sis San Navarra [online]. 2022, vol.45, n.3, e1013. Epub Apr 24, 2023. ISSN 1137-6627. https://dx.doi.org/10.23938/assn.1013.
Cognitive multisensory rehabilitation (CMR) -a therapeutic approach to help recover movement using neurocognitive exercises- activates patient's perceptive and cognitive processes, key for motor learning. The aim of this systematic review was to assess the effectiveness of CMR on motor function and quality of life and compare the findings with other rehabilitation approaches or no-intervention in neurological and trauma adult and pediatric patients. We carried out a systematic review of randomized controlled clinical trials, pilot studies, and case series in PubMed, PEDro, Cochrane Library, and the CINHAL Complete database published between 2012 and 2021. Ten studies met the eligibility criteria. CMR provides similar or superior benefits compared to other types of approaches for the restoration of upper limb function, gait, balance, and quality of life in neurological and trauma patients. Further research with larger samples and higher methodological quality need to be developed to determine its long-term effectiveness.
