Summary
This study will examine the feasibility and effect of a program that combines exercise and feedback from a wearable device on upper limb movement practice and function in individuals with stroke.
Detailed description
Participants will be randomized into either the Immediate Treatment Group or the Delayed Treatment group. Both groups will complete the same intervention program. The Immediate treatment group will start the program right away while the Delayed Treatment group will start the program after a 3 week delay. The intervention program is 3 weeks in duration and consists of participants completing at least two hours of exercises (adapted from the Home-GRASP program) daily and wearing an activity monitor on their affected wrist during waking hours for the duration of the intervention. Participants will be asked to meet daily movement count goals based on information from the monitor. Participants will have 6 virtual sessions with a therapist who will teach and monitor exercises thru an online platform (Zoom Video Communications), work with participants to generate and progress daily movement goals and discuss barriers and potential solutions to exercise adherence and/or meeting movement goals.
