  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: This study will include only people with a diagnosis of stroke who have been admitted to the in-patient rehabilitation facility "Brookdale Center for Healthy Aging \& Rehabilitation" in Naples, FL. The side of the stroke, the type of the stroke, or a history of prior stroke are not considerations. The study is intended to be very clinically focused to better understand the activity level of the population seen at the facility. This study is purposely not controlling the population to a very narrow presentation so that the results will speak directly to the facility and their outcomes

Who may be able to join

  • diagnosis of stroke
  • patient at the Brookdale Center for Healthy Aging \& Rehabilitation
  • not greater than maximum assistance to walk 10 feet
  • walking re-training included in the therapy plan of care

About this study

Official title: The Correlation Between Activity Levels and Rehabilitation Outcomes of Patients Post-stroke in an In-patient Rehabilitation Center

Patients admitted to the in-patient rehabilitation center with a diagnosis of stroke will be recruited into the study. The participants will wear two activity monitors (one commercial grade and one research grade) for the duration of their rehab stay. Data from the monitors will be correlated with rehab outcomes, therapy units billed, and length of stay.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • activity monitorsOther

    activity monitors are worn on the wrist, much like a watch. Data from the activity monitors will be downloaded once a week and at discharge. Normal hospital and therapy activities will not be altered.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Physical Activity Level

    Amount of physical activity each day and throughout rehab stay as measured by 2 activity monitors beginning at admission and ending at discharge from the facility

    Measured: from the date of recruitment to the date of discharge or up to 45 days whichever comes first

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. therapy units billed

    therapy units are billed 15 minute time blocks; the number of each type of unit will be assessed at discharge from the facility

    Measured: from the date of recruitment to the date of discharge or up to 45 days whichever comes first

  2. Functional Independence Measure (FIM)

    FIM is a standard rehabilitation outcome used in all rehabilitation hospitals; measured at admission and discharge from the facility

    Measured: from the date of recruitment to the date of discharge or up to 45 days whichever comes first

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stroke, run by Florida Gulf Coast University at 2 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Physical Activity Level (time frame: from the date of recruitment to the date of discharge or up to 45 days whichever comes first). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jul 2020.
