About this study

Official title: The Effect of Task-oriented Occupational Therapy Intervention on Occupational Performance, Occupational Balance and Quality of Life Among Individuals with Chronic Stroke

Chronic stroke is a neurological disorder that leads to long-term disability and functional impairments in motor, sensory, cognitive, and speech functions, persisting beyond six months after the stroke incident. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of task- oriented occupational therapy intervention on occupational performance, occupational balance, and quality of life in individuals with chronic stroke. The study included 30 individuals with chronic stroke aged between 18 and 65, who were divided into two groups:

the task-oriented occupational therapy intervention group (TOOT) (n=15) and the control group (n=15). The participants in the TOOT group received task-oriented occupational therapy intervention in 30-minute sessions, five days a week, for four weeks, while the control group received routine upper-extremity-based occupational therapy intervention in a hospital setting.

Being tested
Task-oriented occupational therapy (TOOT), Control group

What is being measured

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

  1. Canadian Occupational Performance Measure

    The task was used to evaluate occupational performance, developed by the Canadian Association of Occupational Therapists, the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure is used to identify problems in activity performance, measure changes in performance, and determine performance satisfaction. The Turkish cultural adaptation, validity, and reliability of this measurement tool were carried out by Torpil, with an internal consistency coefficient ranging from 0.9 to 1.

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 4 weeks

  2. Occupational Balance Questionnaire-11 (OBQ11-T)

    The task was used to evaluate occupational balance. The Occupational Balance Questionnaire is a questionnaire in which a person evaluates their occupational balance in relation to their current situation and daily life.

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 4 weeks

  3. Stroke Impact Scale 3.0

    The quality of life was evaluated with The Stroke Impact Scale. It is a self-report questionnaire that evaluates disability and health-related quality of life after stroke

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 4 weeks
