Three traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients achieved a significant increase in level of function in a short period of time using a Computer-Based Cognitive Prosthesis (CBCP). A CBCP is a compensatory strategy which applies computer science concepts to brain injury rehabilitation. One-of-a-kind software is designed to assist the brain injury survivor in performing functional activities. New techniques of rehabilitation are also applied. Research subjects were between one and five years post injury. Patients were able to make substantial contributions to the design of their prosthetic software. Increases in level of functioning were seen both in everyday activities targeted for the intervention, as well as generalized increase on neurobehavioral and psychological dimensions.
