Development of Domiciliary Program on Improving Activities of Daily Living Program for Patients With Stroke

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Stroke
• Interventions: Other: Domiciliary care - Activities of Daily Living

• Registration Number: NCT03828851
• Lead Sponsor: National Taiwan University Hospital

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the Domiciliary care- Activities of Daily Living program on activities of daily living (ADL), motor, cognition, perception, sensory, quality of life, and depression for patients with stroke.

Detailed Description

Administering ADL and recovery of ADL functions are the primary efficacy indicators in long-term care and the main treatment goals in rehabilitation for patients with stroke. Residential rehabilitation is a direct way to observe patients' living environment and provides feasible ADL treatment plans for patients with stroke living at home or in the community. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the Domiciliary care- Activities of Daily Living program on activities of daily living, motor, cognition, perception, sensory, quality of life, and depression. The eligible participants were recruited and assigned into two groups: ADL home program and control group who received traditional rehabilitation in hospital. The primary outcome measures were the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure, the Barthel Index-based Supplementary Scales, the Frenchay Activities Index, and ADL domain of the Stroke Impact Scale. The secondary outcome measures were the Fugl-Meyer Assessment, the Mini Mental State Examination, the Test of Visual Perceptual Skills-Third Edition, and the Center of Epidemiological Study-Depression.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Changes of the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure	6 months	The Canadian Occupational Performance Measure assesses occupational performance. The total score ranges from 1-10. A higher score indicates better occupational performance. Changes of occupational performance will be assessed at the 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months.
Changes of the Barthel Index-based Supplementary Scales	6 months	The Barthel Index-based Supplementary Scales assesses basic activities of daily living. The total score range from 0-58. A higher score indicates better basic activities of daily living. Changes of basic activities of daily living will be assessed at the 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months.
Changes of the Frenchay Activities Index	6 months	The Frenchay Activities Index assesses instrumental activities of daily living. The total score range from 0-45. A higher score indicates better instrumental activities of daily living. Changes of instrumental activities of daily living will be assessed at the 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months.
Changes of the ADL domain of the Stroke Impact Scale	6 months	The ADL domain of the Stroke Impact Scale assess difficulty in performing activities of daily living. The domain score range from 10-50. A higher score indicates less difficulty in performing activities of daily living. Changes of difficulty in performing activities of daily living will be assessed at the 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Changes of the Fugl-Meyer Assessment	6 months	The Fugl-Meyer Assessment assesses ability of motor control. The total score range from 0-226. A higher score indicates better ability of motor control. Changes of ability of motor control will be assessed at the 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months.
Changes of the Mini Mental State Examination	6 months	The Mini Mental State Examination assesses general cognitive ability. The total score range from 0-30. A higher score indicates better general cognitive ability. Changes of general cognitive ability will be assessed at the 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months.
Changes of the Center of Epidemiological Study-Depression	6 months	The Center of Epidemiological Study-Depression assesses depression conditions. The total score range from 0-60. A higher score indicates more serious depression conditions. Changes of depression conditions will be assessed at the 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months.
Changes of the Test of Visual Perceptual Skills-Third Edition	6 months	The Test of Visual Perceptual Skills-Third Edition assesses visual perception. The total score range from 0-112. A higher score indicates better visual perception. Changes of visual perception will be assessed at the 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 6 months.
