Telerehabilitation With Digital Technologies for the Continuum of Care of Stroke Patients: a Multicentre Randomized Controlled Trial on Effectiveness, Acceptability, Usability, and Economic Sustainability
The goal of the pragmatic study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a home-based telerehabilitation protocol for patients with post-stroke disabilities, compared to a home-based educational program.
The main question it aims to answer is:
Is home-based neuromotor and cognitive rehabilitation using digital tools more effective than a traditional educational program for improving static and dynamic balance in patients with subacute and chronic stroke? Researchers will compare the outcome (Berg Balance Scale) measured at baseline with the outcome after treatment to test its effectiveness.
Inclusion: Diagnosis of first ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke verified by Computed Axial Tomography or MRI; Age greater than 18 years; Latency since the event: a) greater than 3 months and less than or equal to 6 months; b) greater than 6 months and less than 24 months; Ability to perform the Timed Up and Go Test.
Exclusion: Severe visual impairment that cannot be corrected by lenses, preventing the patient from performing treatment with digital instruments; Unstable clinical conditions; Behavioral/cognitive disorders that prevent adequate patient compliance with the study (severe cognitive impairment, Montreal Cognitive Assessment<17.5); Refusal to sign informed consent.
