Recovery-focused Community support to Avoid readmissions and improve Participation after Stroke: a multicentre randomised controlled trial: primary outcome dataset

Résumé fourni par la source

DATA SET for PRIMARY OUTCOME ANALYSIS - ReCAPS multicentre randomised controlled trialThe primary aim was to determine the effectiveness of a co-designed, eHealth self-management intervention for reducing unplanned hospital presentations in people ging home from hospital after stroke.This was a prospective, multicentre randomised controlled trial with blinded outcome assessment and intention-to-treat analysis. Randomisation (1:1, stratified by age and level of disability at baseline) within 2 weeks of hospital discharge. Participants aged ≥18 years with modified Rankin score (mRS) 0-4 were recruited from 11 Australian hospitals.To maintain blinding, all participants co-developed 3-5 self-management goals with a trained clinician-researcher, using a standardised approach. Following randomisation, participants were allocated to receive personalised, goal-centred electronic messages (intervention) or administrative messages (active control) over 12 weeks via text or email. The groups were not informed about the number of messages they would receive and were unaware that only the intervention group had their messages tailored to their goals.The primary outcome was unplanned hospital presentations (emergency/admission) within 90 days post-randomisation.Trial registration: ACTRN12618001468213, U1111-1206-7237Published protocol: DOI: 10.1177/17474930211022678Published statistical analysis plan: DOI: 10.1186/s13063-023-07864-2Published article: https://doi.org/10.1177/17474930261472686
