Page 1 of 2The Bender Gestalt-II an Underutilized Tool in Brief Neurological Screening
Journal Title: Archives in Neurology & Neuroscience (ANN) - Year 2018, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
School personnel and others involved with students with head injury, brain damage and concussion have difficulty monitoring recovery and progress of therapeutic intervention in cases of children and adolescents who have suffered a head trauma. The recently revised Bender Gestalt II is a quick, and reliable dependable test that will at least provide some information as to recovery from head injury or concussion and will provide a way in which clinicians can monitor progress and recovery. This article will provide preliminary information about the revised Bender Gestalt II and outline some ways in which this instrument can be employed to provide feedback as to growth and recovery regarding head injury.
