Examines the feasibility of an online cognitive intervention in children with brain tumors, suggesting further research is needed to enhance effectiveness.
This study examined the feasibility of the Swedish Memory and Attention ReTraining - digital edition (SMART-d), an online paediatric cognitive rehabilitation intervention combining direct training with metacognitive and behaviour modification strategies over the course of 5 weeks, 5 days a week. Six children/adolescents treated for paediatric brain tumour (PBT) participated in the study, four completing all five SMART-d training weeks (67%). Findings suggest adjustments to improve efficacy and retention rates, and that the SMART-d is a feasible and acceptable cognitive rehabilitation intervention for paediatric survivors of acquired brain injury. Further investigation within a larger scale randomized clinical trial (RCT) is warranted.
