Following acquired brain injury, some patients fail to orient to, attend to, respond to, or report stimuli appearing on the contralesional hemispace, with patients preferring the ipsilesional space despite having intact sensory abilities. Known as unilateral spatial neglect, this disorder is commonplace but highly variable in its symptoms and severity. Although left-sided neglect is diagnosed more frequently than right; left and right-sided neglect are both common. However, as it stands, the current literature predominately focuses on left-sided neglect. Therefore, the potentially different neurological root causes or the behavioural and cognitive consequences of right-sided neglect remains unclear. To our knowledge there has been no systematic review focussing on right-sided neglect. A systematic scoping review can help map the literature specific to right-sided neglect and highlight the characteristics of this disorder. This scoping review aims to map the literature on right-sided neglect following acquired brain injury.
