Effects of Group Leisure Activities and Musical Training on Hospital Stroke Rehabilitation.

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 21 Apr 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether adding group leisure activities and musical training can help people recover better after a stroke during their hospital rehabilitation. The study will include adults who had a recent stroke and are staying in the neurological rehabilitation unit. The main questions the study aims to answer are: Does adding leisure activities and musical training help people become more independent in their daily activities? Does this combined approach improve movement, thinking skills, mood, and quality of life more than standard rehabilitation alone? Researchers will compare three groups to see which approach works best: Standard hospital rehabilitation. Standard rehabilitation plus individual musical training. Standard rehabilitation plus group leisure activities and group musical training. Participants will: Take part in their usual rehabilitation sessions in the hospital. Depending on their assigned group, also do individual or group musical training and/or group leisure activities. Complete evaluations at the start of the study, at hospital discharge, and one month later. Have a brain scan and wear a wrist device that tracks daily movement. Share their experiences in an interview.
