Treatment and study plan

VIRTUAL REALITY application

Diagnostic Test

application on virtual reality headset

Primary outcomes

  1. Performance of the virtual reality application compared to classic cognitive tests batery for the detection of cognitive deficit

    Time frame: from surgery to 3 months after surgery

Secondary outcomes

  1. Performance of the virtual reality application compared with conventional cognitive tests used to detect visual-spatial attention disorders

    Time frame: from surgery to 3 months after surgery

  2. Performance of the virtual reality application compared with conventional cognitive tests used to detect facial emotion recognition disorders

    Time frame: from surgery to 3 months after surgery

  3. Performance of the virtual reality application compared with conventional cognitive tests, used to detect spatial attention disorders or the presence of facial emotion recognition disorders depending respectively on the location or type of facial emotion

    Time frame: from surgery to 3 months after surgery

  4. Study the reproducibility of the virtual reality application for detecting the presence of cognitive function disorders

    Time frame: from surgery to 3 months after surgery

  5. Study the correlation between visuo-spatial and facial emotion recognition deficits and possible tractographic changes

    Time frame: from surgery to 3 months after surgery

  6. Study the association between the presence of cognitive function deficits and the presence of behavioral disorders or health-related quality of life

    Time frame: from surgery to 3 months after surgery
