Physical Activity Maintenance Intervention for People With Stroke
United Kingdom34 participantsStarted 2024-12-12
Plain-language summary
Most people living with stroke engage in low levels of physical activity putting them at higher risk of having a second stroke and developing a range of chronic health conditions. Despite their desire to participate in physical activity, numerous barriers exist. Whilst Northern Ireland Chest Heart and Stroke has successfully implemented the Post Rehabilitation Exercise Programme, the challenge arises post-completion, as survivors of stroke struggle to sustain physical activity over the longer term. This study aims to design and test an intervention to support physical activity in the longer term.
