Effectiveness of a Rehabilitation Exercise Plan at Home to Treat Post-stroke Patients in the Chronic Phase

Rövid összefoglaló (regiszter, angolul)

Background: Stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide and the primary medical cause of disability. It is estimated that 45% of affected individuals will continue to have moderate or severe functional disabilities throughout their lives. According to the American Stroke Association, telerehabilitation has the potential to provide timely and efficient care to stroke survivors, improving patients' functional outcomes while reducing long-term disability and associated costs. Hypothesis: Through the developed application (Muvity), the study aims to contribute to the validity of telerehabilitation and virtual reality as beneficial tools for rehabilitation, specifically for individuals in the post-stroke sequelae phase. Objectives: To evaluate the effectiveness of a non-immersive virtual reality program in telerehabilitation for patients who have experienced a stroke more than 6 months ago. Methodology: Prospective longitudinal study with single blinding. The control group undergoes a conventional intervention, while the experimental group undergoes an innovative intervention (n=25). Variables: The collected variables and measurement tools include upper extremity functionality (Fugl-Meyer scale), balance (Berg), functional independence (Barthel), pain (Brief Pain Inventory), post-stroke quality of life (ECVI-38), emotional health (UCLA Self-Rating Depression Scale), treatment expectations (Expectation for Treatment Scale), treatment adherence (through an APP), and satisfaction (Telehealth Usability Questionnaire). Statistical Analysis: Data will be analyzed per protocol (PP); the normality distribution of the data will be assessed, and results will be analyzed using parametric or non-parametric techniques depending on normality. A bivariate analysis will compare results between the control and intervention groups, considering a statistically significant result when p \< 0.05. Expected Results: Similar results are expected between groups or slightly favorable outcomes in the experimental group for the different variables. Applicability and Relevance: The application would facilitate access to motor rehabilitation treatments in an enjoyable and engaging manner, promoting physical activity and contributing to a healthy lifestyle. Upon obtaining the results of this study, a trial implementation of the application in five socio-sanitary or associative centers is planned to verify its final applicability.
