NCT ID NCT06588647
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a group-based self-management program delivered via telehealth for people who had a mild or moderate stroke within the last 6 months. The program teaches problem-solving and goal-setting skills to improve daily activities and community participation. Researchers will measure changes in activity performance, confidence, and quality of life in 100 participants.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Improving Participation after Stroke Self-Management Program (IPASS-R) - a group-based behavioral intervention delivered via telehealth
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this program could help stroke survivors regain confidence and independence in daily activities, improving their quality of life.
- What could go wrong
- This is a relatively small, early-stage trial (100 participants) testing a behavioral program, so results may not apply to all stroke survivors. The program requires active participation and may not benefit everyone.
