What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the effectiveness of a home-based rehabilitation program using appropriate technology (S-HRAT) for stroke survivors experiencing limb dysfunction. The study involves 36 participants who will be randomly assigned to either a control group receiving usual care or an experimental group receiving usual care plus an 8-week S-HRAT training program. The primary focus is to assess improvements in motor function and activities of daily living, with additional evaluations on anxiety, depression, exercise adherence, and patient satisfaction. Assessments will take place at baseline, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks post-discharge.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older who have experienced a stroke and have limb dysfunction, within two weeks to six months post-onset.

Not a fit: Patients who are returning to a hospital or rehabilitation facility after discharge or have serious, life-threatening conditions may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this approach could significantly enhance motor function and daily living activities for stroke survivors at home.

How similar studies have performed: While this approach is innovative, similar studies have shown promise in enhancing rehabilitation outcomes for stroke patients through home-based interventions.
