Brief summary (registry, in English)

Stroke is an extremely severe medical condition which is ranked as the second biggest cause of death worldwide as it claims an estimated 5.5 million lives per year. A stroke can result in enduring brain injury, prolonged disability, or fatality (Tsao et al., 2023) . There are two major types of stroke: Hemorrhagic stroke and Ischemic stroke. The most prevalent type is Ischemic, accounting for approximately 87% of strokes worldwide. It arises from a blockage in a blood vessel supplying the brain (Collaborators, 2022) . Also, the affected brain areas can result in functional limitations, cognitive changes, and emotional difficulties (Fihla, 2024) . Moreover, given the potential cost-effectiveness of OEP compared to more intensive rehabilitation methods, its implementation could offer a pragmatic solution to improving the quality of life for individuals grappling with the enduring consequences of ischemic stroke. Therefore, exploring the effectiveness of OEP in this specific population holds promise for advancing stroke rehabilitation strategies and potentially improving the lives of individuals living with the long-term effects of ischemic stroke.
