Spatial Neglect Subtypes, Definitions and Assessment Tools: A Scoping Review
Objective: The objective of this scoping review was to capture the reported definitions for the subtypes of neglect post stroke and map the range of assessment tools employed for each neglect subtype.Methods: EMBASE, Emcare, Medline, and psychINFO were searched from database inception.
