ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial, called Rehabkompassen®, is looking at a new digital tool designed to help people who have had a stroke. The goal is to see if this tool can improve the way patients recover and manage their daily lives after being discharged from the hospital. By using the Rehabkompassen®, which collects information directly from patients about their health and experiences, researchers hope to create a more personalized rehabilitation plan that can lead to better overall health and quality of life.

To participate in this trial, individuals must be at least 18 years old and have had a stroke within the last four months. They should also have been discharged from a hospital. Participants will be divided into two groups: one will receive standard care, while the other will use the Rehabkompassen® tool along with their usual care. The study will track how effective the tool is in helping people regain their independence and improve their daily activities over a year. This is an exciting opportunity for stroke survivors to potentially benefit from a new approach to rehabilitation that is tailored to their specific needs.
