First seen Jun 29, 2026 · Last updated Jun 30, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a structured problem-solving approach called CO-OP (Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance) for adults who have had a stroke or traumatic brain injury. Participants learn a 'Goal-Plan-Do-Check' strategy to tackle everyday tasks like dressing or cooking, with a therapist using guided discovery. The trial compares this method to usual rehabilitation to see if it improves performance of daily activities and quality of life.
