Enhancing Community Participation for Stroke Survivors With Cognitive Impairments
Sponsor: Taipei Medical University
Summary
Abstract Method: Participants with a diagnosis of stroke and have cognitive impairment (a score of 3 or more on the Executive Interview, 14-item version) will be randomly assigned to the intervention group and the attention control group at a 1:1 ratio. Each session will be around 45 minutes and will be delivered 1 to 2 sessions per week for 12 to 15 sessions. Outcome measures including the Participation Measure- 3 Domains, 4 Dimensions (PM-3D4D), Canadian Occupational Performance Measure(COPM), Activity Measure for Post-Acute Care (AMPAC) Outpatient Short Forms, Wisconsin Card Sorting Task (WCST), Stroop Test, Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Trail-Making Test (TMT A and B), The National Institutes of Health Stroke scale (NIHSS), modified Rankin Scale (MRS), Euro-QoL-5-Dimension (EQ-5D) and Participation Strategies Self Efficacy Scale (PS-SES) will be administered at baseline (T1), post-intervention (T2), 3-month follow-up (T3), 6-month follow-up (T4), and 12-month follow-up (T5). Of the recruited participants, 50 will recieve the fMRI tests (including the resting-state scan, the fMRI scan with Stroop Test and TMT tasks, and the anatomical structure scan) at baseline, post-intervention, and 6month follow-up.Data will be analyzed using multiple linear regression models and mixed-effects regression models.

Strategy Training
This approach is different from traditional direct skill training, which emphasizes clinicians' responsibility on identifying their patients' challenges in performing activities and teaching patients task-specific problem-solving strategies. Strategy training, on the other hand, requires clinicians to take a role as a facilitator, guiding participants to learn through prompts and questions. In the training process, participants learn to develop their own problem-solving strategies and work through the problems they have, through which they can develop self-efficacy and confidence to manage participation challenges. Participants can also generalize the strategies they learn to other similar problems they encounter in daily life.
