Experimental: e learning+therapy (TEAACH)
TEAACH-Training to Empower Activity-dependent plasticity-based Arm-use habits in the Community and at Home
|
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. |
What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in Health Literacy From Baseline to 3 Months
Time Frame: Baseline Visit and 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.
|
Baseline Visit and 3 months
|
Change in Self Management Skills From Baseline to 3 Months
Time Frame: Baseline and 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.

Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in Self-Efficacy for Managing Daily Activities From Baseline to 3 Months and 5 Months
Time Frame: Baseline Visit, 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.
|
Baseline Visit, 3 months and 5 months
|
Change in Social Isolation From Baseline to 3 Months and 5 Months
Time Frame: Baseline Visit, 3 months & 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.
|
Baseline Visit, 3 months & 5 months
|
Change in Emotional Support From Baseline to 3 Months and 5 Months
Time Frame: Baseline Visit, 3 months (Post Treatment+/- 3 days), & 5 months (Follow up +/- 3 days)
|
Emotional Support will be assessed using the NIH PROMIS Emotional Support assessment.
Minimum score = 0, Maximum score = 8.
Higher numbers indicate greater emotional support.
