COGNURO TAP 與 Focus Builder 使用情況與統計

The metronome has been a standard tool in the neuro industry for years. It's been shown to help with attention, brain rehabilitation, stamina, aging, and more. Our goal is to take those tools and improve upon them. Over the last 7 years, we have gathered data on numerous patients that vary widely in age. Our research has inspired us to create this app to rehabilitate and improve brain function. Every brain is different! The brain has twelve cranial nerves, and many variations and pathways can come from them. We can’t assume that everyone, with vastly different brains, are going to process information at the same speed. This is why the TAP app was created. This data is coming firsthand from the Brain Rehab Clinic. We will continue to build upon the evolving information. Our app assesses the speed at which each patient can effectively learn and train. In addition, it continually assesses and records the data needed to customize the patient's treatment plan. Everyone's brain has a specific rate between 30 -100 bpm at which it learns and processes information. As a clinician, Dr. Hatch likes to ensure his patients are doing the correct rehabilitation therapy, and that it is being executed accurately with the metronome beat. This is why a responsive metronome tool is critical and so advantageous. This app begins assessing at 50 bpm on the left and right hands alone, then we increase the speed to 60 bpm while tapping with both hands alternating. This gives us a baseline to work from. If their results are weak, we "find their speed" by customizing the metronome speed on the app. Our goal is to find each person’s processing speed that allows their brain to perform at its best. Finding their speed expedites rehabilitation and makes the hard wiring more permanent. On this app, we assess before, throughout, and post treatment. This takes away all guesswork. Also included is a tool for assisting in developing a better memory. The allows you to select from various degrees of word difficulties, number of words and times for memorizing words. It scatters the words can challenges you reproduce certain word orderings from memory.

Focus Builder

Focus Builder is optimized for use on an iPad. Eye movements are a very powerful way to exercise the brain and to create long-term change in the brain, known as plasticity. The “Focus Builder” app contains a variety of exercises which challenge users to voluntarily move their eyes in various patterns, speeds and directions, which have been proven to activate specific parts of the brain depending on which eye movement is performed. This app is specifically designed for doctors that specialize in Functional Neurology and their patients. There is currently no app available that can provide these specific exercises. For best results, patients should consult a Functional Neurologist to determine how to use this app according to their needs and obtain the most therapeutic value. There are 3 types of eye movements that can have profound therapeutic benefits and all three are available in this app. 1.Pursuits (slow eye movements): Smooth pursuit eye movements allow the eyes to closely follow a moving object. Most people are unable to initiate pursuit without a moving visual signal. The pursuit of targets moving with velocities of greater than 30°/s tend to require catch-up saccades. 2.Saccades (fast eye movements): Saccades are quick, simultaneous movements of both eyes in the same direction. Initiated cortically by the frontal eye fields (FEF), or subcortically by the superior colliculus, saccades serve as a mechanism for fixation, rapid eye movement, and the fast phase of optokinetic nystagmus. 3.Anti-saccades (look away): The anti-saccade task has emerged as an important task for investigating the flexible control that we have over behavior. In this task, participants must suppress the reflexive urge to look at a visual target that appears suddenly in the peripheral visual field and must instead look away from the target in the opposite direction. A crucial step involved in performing this task is the top-down inhibition of a reflexive, automatic saccade. Patients diagnosed with various neurological and/or psychiatric disorders that affect the frontal lobes or basal ganglia find it difficult to suppress the automatic pro-saccade, revealing a deficit in top-down inhibition. The areas of the brain that are activated by these eye movements are too numerous to list, but to name a few, I have listed some of the functions that can improve with these eye exercises. 1.Executive function/behavior 2.Attention 3.Concentration 4.Impulse control 5.Social behavior 6.Motivation 7.Goal directed behavior
