An interventional study of TEAACH in Stroke, sponsored by Medical University of South Carolina. Terminated at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 21 Years to 90 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-03-17.
Sponsored by Medical University of South Carolina · Not applicable, Interventional, and Treatment
Stroke survivors with arm paresis because of stroke use their "good" arm for daily activities, but in doing so may be self-limiting their own recovery of the "bad" arm. Traditional models of stroke rehabilitation fail to fully engage the survivor and care partner(s) in actively planning post-discharge habits that improve their capacity to live well over their entire lives. This study will test a cutting-edge in-person therapy + online training program designed to progressively transfer the responsibility of driving post-stroke recovery from the therapist to the survivor.

Exclusion criteria:
TEAACH-Training to Empower Activity-dependent plasticity-based Arm-use habits in the Community and at Home
Behavioral: TEAACH
TEAACH e-learning: 3-months of online educational modules include neuroscience education (based on an effective pain educational model37) to improve patient self-efficacy, and strategy-training38 to improve patients' problem-solving abilities for at-home arm use. The course is live on the MUSC MoodleCE platform. TEAACH in-clinic therapy: 24 in-clinic sessions; 3 times/week for 4 weeks (month 1), 2 times/week for 4 weeks (month 2) and 1 time/week for 4 weeks (month 3) with 200 movement repetitions per session. In our RCTs, this therapy dose required \~1.0-1.5 hours/session. A critical element of TEAACH is the focus on linking in-clinic therapy to out-of-clinic real world paretic arm use via MoodleCE Learning Activities.
Change in Health Literacy From Baseline to 3 Months
Health Literacy will be assessed via a standardize 18-item test designed to assess an adult's ability to read and understand common medical terms. Minimum = 0, Maximum = 18. Higher scores indicate greater health literacy.
Time frame: Baseline Visit and 3 months
Change in Self Management Skills From Baseline to 3 Months
Participants' ability to manage their chronic condition (their stroke) will be assessed qualitatively using interview questions. Participants' narratives will be analyzed and reported as a description of how their own skills have changed.
Time frame: Baseline and 3 months
Change in Self-Efficacy for Managing Daily Activities From Baseline to 3 Months and 5 Months
Self-Efficacy will be assessed using the NIH PROMIS Self-Efficacy for Managing Daily Activities assessment. Minimum score = 0, Maximum score = 8. Higher numbers indicate greater self efficacy.
Time frame: Baseline Visit, 3 months and 5 months
Change in Social Isolation From Baseline to 3 Months and 5 Months
Social Isolation will be assessed using the NIH PROMIS Social Isolation assessment. Minimum score = 0, Maximum score = 8. Higher numbers indicate less social isolation.
Time frame: Baseline Visit, 3 months & 5 months
Change in Emotional Support From Baseline to 3 Months and 5 Months
Emotional Support will be assessed using the NIH PROMIS Emotional Support assessment. Minimum score = 0, Maximum score = 8. Higher numbers indicate greater emotional support.
Time frame: Baseline Visit, 3 months (Post Treatment+/- 3 days), & 5 months (Follow up +/- 3 days)
