Study Summary

This trial aims to improve activity performance and reduce motor impairment in individuals with stroke through metacognitive strategy training.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 40-85 who have had a stroke within the last 9 months, can read and write in English, and are living at home (with or without help). They should be able to move their arms somewhat but not fully (mild to moderate arm weakness), and they shouldn't have severe speech problems, depression, dementia, other serious neurological issues or any condition that would make the study unsafe for them.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial tests a new way of rehab called Metacognitive Strategy Training using the CO-OP approach against usual care occupational therapy. It's designed to see if this strategy helps improve daily activities and motor function after a stroke. Participants will get either ten sessions of this new training or regular therapy, with follow-ups before treatment starts, right after it ends, and three months later.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this is an educational intervention focusing on cognitive strategies rather than medication or invasive procedures, significant side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience fatigue or frustration during rehabilitation exercises.
