El INCREÍBLE trastorno que te hace prestar ATENCIÓN a solo la MITAD | HEMINEGLIGENCIA

The video discusses spatial negligence, a disorder caused by brain injury, often after a stroke. It explains how the right and left hemispheres of the brain control attention and movement on opposite sides of the body. The disorder can affect vision, hearing, touch, and memory. Various therapies, including the use of prisms, aim to help patients compensate for the lack of attention on the neglected side. However, results vary due to individual differences and other complications from strokes. The video concludes with stories of two women pursuing their dreams.
