Enhancing Societal Participation for Stroke Survivors With Cognitive Impairments: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Returning to societal participation is an important goal for stroke survivors, but evidence for effective rehabilitation remains inconclusive. This study evaluated the efficacy of participation-focused strategy training in improving poststroke participation among community-dwelling survivors with cognitive impairments.

Methods

This multicenter, randomized trial enrolled stroke survivors with executive function impairments between January 2019 and March 2023. Participants received either strategy training (n=96) or an attention-control intervention (n=99) in 12 to 15 sessions over 8 weeks. The primary outcome was the postintervention change in participation across productivity, social, and community domains from the baseline, measured by the Participation Measure-3
