Summary

This pilot study tests a home-based rehabilitation program called TASSRET for stroke survivors who have limited access to physiotherapy. Fifty participants will use either a video or a manual guide to practice specific tasks aimed at improving arm and leg function, balance, and quality of life. The goal is to see if this self-directed approach can help people recover mobility in low-resource settings.

What this could mean

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

Active substance: Task-specific self-rehabilitation training (video or manual format)
What this could lead to: If successful, this could provide an affordable, home-based rehab option for stroke survivors in low-resource areas, improving their mobility and daily function.
What could go wrong: This is a small pilot study (50 participants) with no control group receiving standard care, so results may not be generalizable. The program relies on self-motivation and access to an Android phone.
