简要总结

South Carolina is home to many survivors of stroke. After leaving the hospital and finishing therapies, stroke survivors often do not have the supports they need to fully recover. Many live with problems for a long time after their stroke, such as trouble walking or doing everyday tasks like cleaning, grocery shopping, or cooking. Research suggests that healthy habits, like moving more, eating well, and being at a healthy weight, can improve most of these disabilities. These habits can be hard to form alone though, especially in rural areas that may not have many healthy foods or places to exercise. Research-based programs can help people form healthy habits. These programs have not been tested in stroke survivors who have different needs though. The goal of this research project is to test StrongPeople StrongHearts, a health program, to see if it helps stroke survivors in South Carolina make better choices for their health and improve their quality of life. The program will be delivered online so that survivors in rural areas can be in the program. One group will also receive a weekly grocery box tailored to their needs to improve access to healthy foods. This study could help increase access to research-based programs for stroke survivors who do not have the supports they did soon after their stroke. This step is important for stroke survivors' long-term health and quality of life, the mission of the American Heart Association.

详细描述

This study will be conducted virtually throughout the Pee Dee and Low Country regions of South Carolina. The purpose of this project is to determine the extent to which Strong SC, an intervention combining StrongPeople StrongHearts with a supplemental medically tailored grocery (MTG) program, impacts lifestyle behaviors and health outcomes of community-dwelling chronic stroke survivors with obesity, compared to the conventional StrongPeople StrongHearts intervention. A total of 50 community-dwelling chronic stroke survivors with overweight or obesity will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: 1) StrongPeople StrongHearts + supplemental MTG program (Strong SC); 2) the conventional StrongPeople StrongHearts program (SPSH); or 3) a wait-list control (CON). SPSH participants will have access to the supplemental MTG program following completion of the 12-week intervention and 12-week follow-up period, and CON participants will be enrolled in the Strong SC intervention following the 12-week intervention and 12-week follow-up period. Anthropometric measures, physical activity, physical and psychosocial function, diet quality, and food security (Aim 1) outcome measures will be assessed prior to the intervention (baseline), at 12 weeks (post), and at 24 weeks (follow-up). The RE-AIM (Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance) and Framework for Reporting Adaptations and Modifications-Expanded (FRAME) frameworks will be utilized to evaluate implementation outcomes and systematic adaptations to StrongPeople StrongHearts (Aim 2). Any StrongPeople StrongHearts program adaptations required, systematically made, and documented will apply to both the Strong SC and SPSH intervention groups.

结局指标

主要结局

Physical Activity

时间窗: Baseline, post-intervention (12 weeks), and follow-up (24 weeks)

Physical activity will be assessed objectively with accelerometers as well as subjectively with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short form

Stroke Impact Scale 3.0 (SIS)

时间窗: Baseline, post-intervention (12 weeks), and follow-up (24 weeks)

Subjective Physical and Psychosocial Function

Diet Quality

时间窗: Baseline, post-intervention (12 weeks), and follow-up (24 weeks)

Diet quality will be assessed with the Healthy Eating Index-2020, calculated from two 24-hour recalls collected using the Automated Self-Administered 24-hour recall. Diet quality will also be assessed with the 26-item Dietary Screener Questionnaire (DSQ).
