ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at a new type of training called PRPP-I that helps adults who have had a stroke improve their thinking skills and independence in daily activities, all from the comfort of their own home. The goal is to see if this training is practical and helpful in making everyday tasks easier, improving quality of life, and reducing the stress on family caregivers.

Adults over 18 who have had a stroke at least six months ago, with mild to moderate thinking difficulties, and who live at home with a non-professional caregiver may be eligible to join. People with other brain conditions, severe thinking problems, or serious speech difficulties are not eligible. Participants will receive home-based cognitive strategy training aimed at making daily living easier, and the study will check how well this approach works for them. This study has not started recruiting yet but aims to help improve independence and support for stroke survivors living at home.
