- Brief Summary
The goal of this (cost)effectiveness study is to compare care as usual with OTHER-intervention in Cerebro Vascular Accident (CVA) older adults in Geriatric Rehabilitation (GR). The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:
1. What is the effectiveness of OTHER, as compared to occupational therapy as usual (CAU), on improving the self-perceived performance in daily activities of community-dwelling older persons post-stroke over a 24-week period after initiation of OTHER or CAU, as measured longitudinally (at week 4, 13 and 26)?
Secondary:
2. What is the effectiveness of OTHER on improving satisfaction with the perceived daily performance of community-dwelling persons post-stroke, 26 weeks after start compared to usual OT? (quantitative approach)
3. What is the effectiveness of OTHER on improving physical activity of community-dwelling persons post-stroke, 26 weeks after start compared to usual OT? (quantitative approach)
4. What is the effectiveness of OTHER on improving self-management of community-dwelling persons post-stroke, 26 weeks after start compared to usual OT? (quantitative approach)
5. How do persons post-stroke and OT's experience and how do they reflect on OTHER in supporting a sense of self-management, safety and improving daily functioning? (qualitative approach).
6. What factors influenced the intervention delivery and the perceived benefits in the OTHER study (process evaluation)? 1) monitoring treatment fidelity, barriers and facilitators for implementation; 2) gain insight into the impact of OTHER on the GR transition to home; 3) to gain insight into what stroke survivors and OT's think of OTHER. 4) how participants, and professionals experience and thoughts they have on the OTHER-intervention in supporting daily functioning and self-management
Cost-effectiveness
7. What is the cost-effectiveness of OTHER on improving self-perceived performance in daily activities and Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALYs) of community-dwelling persons post-stroke, 26 weeks after start compared to usual OT? (quantitative approach)
Participants will get the OTHER-intervention treatment given by de occupational therapist which consists of activity monitoring, coaching and videoconferencing to optimalise the transition from clinical care to home.
Researchers will compare care as usual to see if there is a effect on improving the self-perceived performance in daily activities, self-management and improving physical activity .

Group Intervention Description OTHER-intervention OTHER-intervention (Occupational Therapy at Home E-Rehabilitation) The OTHER-intervention is part of the OT care. Start during inpatient GR rehabilitation and goes on 12 weeks afte discharge when a patient is home. The OT will coach a patient and use a activity monitoring system. Also videoconferencing will be used.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Changes in Canadian Occupational Performance measure (COPM-p) at three time points The investigators assess the changes across three time points (one, three and six months) The primary outcome measure is 'perceived daily performance' 4 weeks, 12 weeks and 24 weeks after the start of OTHER compared to baseline functioning, measured with the Canadian Occupational Performance measure. The COPM results in a performance score (COPM-p). The COPM is a person-centred, occupation-focused outcome measure for the detection of change in perceived daily performance over time. The COPM results in a performance score (COPM-p) and a satisfaction score (COPM-s). Through a semi-structured interview, persons will prioritize up to five daily activities that deemed most important and rate each on a 10-point scale regarding perceived performance (COPM-p) (1=not able to do at all and 10 = able to do extremely well. The mean COPM-p will be obtained by summing the ratings and dividing them by the number of prioritized activities.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Activity level up to 15 weeks The wearable activity monitor (PAM) will be applied to measure the amount of active movement in minutes per day.
Changes in Canadian Occupational Performance measure (COPM-s) baseline, 4 weeks after discharge GR, 12 weeks after discharge GR and 24 weeks after discharge GR Persons post-stroke satisfaction in performing daily functioning will be measured with the COPM-s(35). Next to the COPM-p, participants rated the prioritized daily activities on a 10-point scale regarding performance satisfaction (COPM-s) (1= not satisfied at all and 10= extremely satisfied).
Self-management baseline, 4 weeks after discharge GR, 12 weeks after discharge GR and 24 weeks after discharge GR Self-management. The Patient-Reported Outcome Occupational Therapy (PROM-OT) is developed to measure the outcome and quality of OT in the Netherlands from a client perspective.The PROM-OT contains 13 questions regarding the outcome of OT for the person (e.g. I can perform my daily activities, whether or not with help/devices (for example self-care, household, leisure, work) and using scoring with 11 point scale (0= lowest score and 10 = highest score). It focusses on daily activities, being able to self-manage related to daily functioning and satisfaction of OT.
Patient's quality of life. baseline,4 weeks after discharge GR, 12 weeks after discharge GR and 24 weeks after discharge GR The EuroQol-5D-5L(41) will be used to measure 'health-related quality of life' outcomes (HRQOL).The HRQOL is measured on 5 health dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each health dimension has 5 severity levels ranging between no problems to extreme problems. The EQ- visual analogue scale (VAS) measures the persons' self-rated health on a scale from 0 to 100 (0= worst health and 100 the best health). The participants' EQ-5D-5L health states will be converted into utility values the Dutch tariff.
Capability of older people baseline,4 weeks after discharge GR, 12 weeks after discharge GR and 24 weeks after discharge GR The ICEpop CAPability measure for Older people (ICECAP-O) is a measure of capability in older people for use in economic evaluation. Unlike most profile measures used in economic evaluations, the ICECAP-O focuses on wellbeing defined in a broader sense, rather than health. The measure covers attributes of wellbeing that were found to be important to older people in the United Kingdom. ICECAP-O comprises five attributes (the lay terms are in brackets): Attachment (love and friendship), Security (thinking about the future without concern), Role (doing things that make participants feel valued), Enjoyment (enjoyment and pleasure), Control (independence). Score from 1 till 4 (1 = lowest and 4 = highest score
Mobility functioning baseline and 24 weeks after discharge GR Time up and go test is a screening tool used to test basic mobility skills of frail elderly patients (60-90 years old) an persons with stroke.
Satisfaction with OT baseline, 4 weeks after discharge GR, 12 weeks after discharge GR and 24 weeks after discharge GR The Patient-Reported Outcome Measure - Occupational Therapy (PROM-OT) is developed to measure the outcome and quality of OT in the Netherlands from a client perspective. The PROM-OT contains 13 questions regarding the outcome of OT for the person (e.g. I can perform my daily activities, whether or not with help/devices (for example self-care, household, leisure, work) and using scoring with 11 point scale (0= lowest score and 10 = highest score). It focusses on daily activities, being able to self-manage related to daily functioning and satisfaction of OT.
Societal cost 12 weeks after discharge GR and 24 weeks after discharge GR Costs will be measured from a societal perspective, meaning that all costs related to the intervention will be measured, irrespective of who pays or benefits from them. Cost will be measured using retrospective cost questionnaires administered after 12 weeks and 24 weeks.
