Occupational Therapy Instructmental Activities of Daily Living and Psychosocial Modules Program for Stroke Survivors
Sponsor: Texas Woman's University
Summary
The study aims to recruit and enroll 25 participants who meet specific criteria, which will be communicated to potential participants, along with information about the study\'s goals, time commitments, benefits, and risks. Participants can ask questions and receive consent forms to review and sign. Once participants sign consent forms, the primary investigator will generate non-identifiable codes for each participant using an Excel spreadsheet to maintain confidentiality and protect participant identities. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups to minimize potential bias and ensure that each group is representative of the overall population. One group will receive a psychosocial intervention, while the other group will engage in instrumental activities of daily living.

Interventions
One group received the psychosocial intervention, while the other group engaged in IADL interventions.
The program took place in two separate office rooms at a Stroke Center at North Texas University. Participants engaged in an eight-week program targeting strategies for IADLs. Group sessions were held in person and lasted approximately 45 minutes. The sessions included an opening message, instructions, and structured group discussions. Research conducted by Guillaumier et al. (2022) has demonstrated that online access is a promising approach to increasing program effectiveness and improving outcomes. In light of this, this study will leverage a weekly, less than 30-minute phone consultation to address participants\' questions, implement a home exercise program, and enhance accessibility for stroke survivors who may face challenges attending in-person appointments. Additionally, individual sessions were conducted via phone to cover the material discussed for that week and to facilitate knowledge retention, reflection, and teach-back opportunities by the research team members.
