Study Summary

This trial tests if a video-based educational platform helps stroke patients understand their condition and be more satisfied.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults who had an ischemic stroke between 1 and 10 years ago, are getting outpatient care at the University of Pennsylvania Hospital, can use a smart device or computer, and are willing to do follow-up surveys. It's not for those who can't use the app, need full-time caregiver help, had their stroke outside the 1-10 year window, or have severe speech difficulties.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The MyStroke clinical trial tests a personalized video-based educational platform designed to improve patient satisfaction and knowledge about chronic stroke management. Participants will be randomly assigned to either receive this intervention or not.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since MyStroke is an educational tool rather than a medication or medical procedure, it does not have typical side effects. However, users may experience frustration if they find the technology difficult to use.
