Summary

Practising physical activity after a stroke is essential for the secondary prevention of stroke. However, the major individuals after stroke are sedentary. Individuals after stroke with mild disabilities could have fewer barriers to this practice. Thus, finding ways to promote physical activity after stroke in these individuals is important for them and public health. Interventions that consider behaviour change strategies are a good way to change a habit and could improve physical activity levels. Self-management interventions have been used to promote behaviour change in the stroke population.

The aim of this pilot trial will be to determine the efficacy of a self-management program to increase physical activity levels in stroke survivors with mild disability through 6 home-based sessions of self-management exercise over 3 and 6 months in a low-income country. Our secondary aims are to evaluate the effect of a self-management program on walking, exercise self-efficacy, participation, quality of life, depression and cardiovascular risks after 3 and 6 months.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Home-based self-management exercise program

Session 1 will includes education about stroke. Session 2 will includes feedback on behaviour performance on initial measurement outcomes, health consequences of the physical inactivity, answering an exercise preferences questionnaire, generation of a list of goals, delivering a smartband and a diary to self-monitoring. Session 3 will includes reviewing of goals and strategies to self-monitoring, encouragement, rising barriers to exercise and potential solutions to them, development of a weekly schedule physical exercise, implementation of the physical exercise session with participant and delivering a paper-exercise guide. Session 4 will includes reviewing of goals and weekly schedule physical exercise, encouragement, problem solving/coping planning, reviewing strategies to self-monitoring and showing to participant a video with another stroke survivors which are physically active. Sessions 5 and 6 will be the same as session 4 with exception of vicarious reinforcement.
