Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of SURE program on UL recovery during first few weeks post-stroke. A randomised blinded controlled pilot trial will be conducted. Twenty people with stroke will be randomly allocated to 4-weeks of SURE program or education program. This is to perform on top of their usual care. To determine the clinical benefit, all participants will be assessed pre-, 2 weeks during the training, post-training, 1-month and 3-month follow-up using a range of impairment and activity measures. To determine the cortical activation (fMRI), structural (FLAIR and DTI) and functional (resting state fcMRI) connectivity of cortical motor regions, all participants will undergo a 3T MRI pre-, post- and post-3 months after training.
