Summary

People living with the cognitive effects of stroke are at risk for recurrent stroke and further cognitive decline. Also problematic is that stroke risk clusters in families and biological family members of people who have ischemic stroke may also be at increased risk of stroke and/or cognitive decline. The primary goal of this study is to test the feasibility of a virtually delivered cognitive strategy training and health coaching program to reduce vascular risk and promote brain health in persons with stroke and their biological family members.

Conditions

  • Stroke, Ischemic

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

CHAMPS-TR

Persons with stroke ( n=20) and at least 1 targeted family member (TFM) (n=20) will engage with the CHAMPS-TR protocol which involves 10 virtual intervention sessions (bi-weekly for 5 weeks) with key elements including metacognitive problem-solving training (i.e., goal setting, guided discovery, strategy development) and vascular risk reduction coaching building on existing American Heart Association (AHA) LE8 content. Probands that are eligible for RS-tDCS (n=10) will receive 5x weekly (weeks 2-5) RS-tDCS applied to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC).
