Study Summary

One-third to one-half of acute strokes result in newly acquired cognitive impairments. Approximately 30 to 40% of people in the acute phase of stroke also sustain communication impairments. Stroke-related cognitive impairments are associated with significant functional disability, as indicated by the inability to regain independence in daily activities. The overall aim of this study is to examine the feasibility of an adapted form of strategy training for people with communication impairments who are admitted to inpatient rehabilitation. These analyses will address a critical gap in current rehabilitation research, namely the exclusion of people with communication impairments in acute stroke rehabilitation clinical trials, and provide pilot data to inform the design of future inclusive clinical trials seeking to reduce disability after stroke.

Primary Outcome

Measure of Participation in Conversation (MPC) Interaction score greater than or equal to 2. The scale assesses the degree of participation executed by the participant with communication impairment during supported conversation. Scores range from 0=no participation/comprehension to 4=full participation/comprehension.
