NCT ID NCT07640360
First seen Jun 15, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This pilot study tests whether an active smartwatch that gives real-time feedback, combined with regular nurse coaching, can help people who had a minor stroke or TIA walk more each day. Fifty participants will be randomly assigned to either an active smartwatch or a passive one that just tracks steps. The goal is to see if the active group increases their daily steps by at least 1,500 over 12 weeks, which could lower the risk of another stroke.
