Study at a Glance<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

The objectives for TRAIL-RCT are as follows:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The primary objective<\/strong> is to compare functional mobility (Timed Up and Go, primary clinical outcome) after 4 weeks of TRAIL to a 4-week attention-controlled education program (EDUCATION) in individuals \u226412 months post-stroke;<\/li>\n
  2. The secondary objective <\/strong>is to compare the 4-week TRAIL and EDUCATION programs on secondary outcomes of:\n
      \n
    1. Lower extremity strength (30-Second Sit-to Stand test);<\/li>\n
    2. Functional balance (Tandem Stand and Functional Reach);<\/li>\n
    3. Motor impairment (Virtual Fugl-Meyer Assessment);<\/li>\n
    4. Balance self-efficacy (Activities-specific Balance Confidence Scale);<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        \n
      1. The tertiary objective<\/strong> is to compare the 4-week TRAIL and EDUCATION programs on health economic outcomes:\n
          \n
        1. Health-related quality of life (Stroke Impact Scale, EuroQol-5D-5 Level); and<\/li>\n
        2. Health resources and costs (Health Resource Utilization Questionnaire)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
            \n
          1. The quaternary objective<\/strong> is to evaluate the feasibility of a subsequent larger multisite implementation stepped wedge randomized trial of TRAIL using pre-specified criteria related to process, resources, management, and scientific indicators.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            *Participants allocated to TRAIL will be asked to complete at least 1 self-management session per week during the program. The anticipated time commitment for homework in the EDUCATION group is 1-2 hours per week.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

            As mentioned above, this study involves 5 virtual evaluations. There will be two evaluations sessions at the beginning of the study (i.e., baseline), one evaluation immediately following the completion of your TRAIL or EDUCATION program (4-weeks), and one evaluation at each 3 and 6 months after you’ve completed the program.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
