Summary

This study tests whether a home-based occupational therapy program using video calls and activity monitoring can help older stroke survivors improve their daily functioning and self-management. Researchers will compare this approach to standard care in 171 participants over 26 weeks. The goal is to see if the video-based therapy leads to better performance and satisfaction in everyday activities.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Occupational therapy delivered via videoconference with activity monitoring and coaching
What this could lead to: If it works, this could offer a more effective and convenient way for stroke survivors to regain independence in daily tasks at home.
What could go wrong: This is a relatively small, early-stage study (171 participants) and the intervention may not prove significantly better than usual care. Results may not apply to all stroke survivors.
