Summary

The proposed study is a two-arm randomized clinical trial designed to assess the effects of the StrokeWear system on clinical outcomes over a period of 6-months in subacute stroke survivors. The Intervention group will use StrokeWear system in combination to a motor and behavioral home intervention whereas the Control group will follow usual care which consists of a home-exercise plan (HEP).

Conditions

  • Stroke
  • Stroke Sequelae
  • Hemiparesis;Poststroke/CVA

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

StrokeWear Behavioral Intervention

Behavioral strategies will be incorporated into the Strokewear system to encourage feedback on behavior, goal setting, daily activity action planning (DAAP), and an empowerment/ self management model to foster planned hemiparetic UE use during daily activities in the home and community. Patient empowerment in this study will occur over 6-months as patients gain the ability to use the StrokeWear technology independently and develop skills to self- manage their GDM and DAAP.

OTHER

Usual Care + Sham

The intervention will consist in a sham version of the StrokeWear system and usual clinical care under the direction of a clinician. The sham version of the StrokeWear system will include sensing and recording technology to detect GDMs. However, study participants will not receive feedback from the system regarding the GDM counts.
