NCT ID NCT06919315
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.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance (CO-OP) behavioural intervention
- What this could lead to
- If effective, this approach could become a standard rehab method to help people with brain injury regain independence in daily tasks.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The intervention requires active participation and may not work for all individuals.
