Abstract

The neuropsychological training methods for the restoration of sensory losses after a TBI aim both at the restoration of the sensory losses and at the practice of the other senses to "compensate" for the dysfunctional sensation.

Aim: The purpose of the study was to present treatment of patients in coma and exercises for enhancing cognitive functions after traumatic brain injury. 

Results: Electronically assisted treatment methods (Computer - Assisted Treatment, CAT) are now recognized methods, with high success rates in the rehabilitation of patients after TBI. 

Conclusions: Cognitive rehabilitation must be done taking into account a variety of neurofunctional abilities and weaknesses. Basic skills need to be stimulated before any approach to more complex ones can be made. The use of audiovisual media in general contributes both to the restoration of vision and compensatory restoration of functions as well as to the general restoration of the patient's cognitive functions. Cognitive rehabilitation to recover and improve attention and memory, offers a variety of different types of exercises for specific disorders. Exercise can vary in degree of difficulty depending on the patient's needs.
