A Pilot Return-to-Work Cognitive Intervention After Stroke
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 26 Aug 2025 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study addresses the growing burden of stroke in Singapore and highlights the lack of rehabilitation services for return to work after stroke. Despite functional physical recovery, many stroke survivors experience persistent impairments that hinder return-to-work. To bridge this gap, the study will implement a community-based brain health programme targeting cognitive and vocational outcomes in stroke survivors. Caregivers will also be included due to their critical support role. The study will assess the intervention's feasibility, acceptability, and its impact on cognitive function, return-to-work, neuroplasticity, psychosocial health, fatigue, and self-care.
