Telerehabilitation for Aphasia (TERRA) (NCT04682223)
Center for the Study of Aphasia Recovery (C-STAR): Telerehabilitation for Aphasia (TERRA)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Speech-language therapy is generally found to be helpful in the rehabilitation of aphasia. However, not all patients with aphasia have access to adequate treatment to maximize their recovery. The goal of this project is to compare the efficacy of telerehabilitation or Aphasia Remote Therapy (ART) to the more traditional In-Clinic Therapy (I-CT).
