Attendance and Adherence to Aerobic Exercise After Stroke

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Stroke is a common cause of functional impairment and a disease that requires large financial resources and days of care(1). For a few years now, group or individual cardiorespiratory training has been a recommended part of subacute rehabilitation after stroke(2). The training form should be a routine part of stroke rehabilitation and should be able to be carried out in both hospitals, municipal facilities and at home(2). The benefits include better walking ability and improved quality of life(3). Despite the possible benefits of cardiorespiratory training, access to the training form has been limited and compliance with the recommendations has been low(4). The Rehab East Neuro Unit has decided to implement the training form in the spring of 2024 to increase access to the training form after stroke. The purpose of this pilot study is to study attendance at training sessions and adherence with the training form's recommendations and guidelines over a six-month period. By identifying any challenges that may arise during the study with recruitment, retention of participants or data collection, the pilot study will form the basis for a larger study that will involve multiple study sites. The pilot study will, through study protocols and interviews or surveys of patients and staff, shed light on study design, instruments for data collection and analysis methods. The results will be used to ensure that further studies are effective, appropriate and feasible. Compliance with guidelines will be evaluated with an exercise diary or digital registration.
