A Digital Intervention for Post-Stroke Depression and Executive Dysfunction (NCT05507138)

Efficacy and Target Engagement of a Digital Intervention to Improve Depression and Executive Dysfunction After Stroke

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Phase2 โš™๏ธ Medical Device Protocol Sponsor: Weill Medical College of Cornell University

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

Individuals with stroke commonly experience both depression and cognitive difficulties. The goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a treatment that combines a digital therapeutic (an iPad-based cognitive training program) with learning cognitive strategies. The hypotheses are that this treatment will improve cognitive skills, depression symptoms, daily function, and brain connectivity. In the short-term, the findings will inform the efficacy of the intervention and in the long-term, may support the use of the intervention to improve co-occurring cognitive and mood difficulties after stroke.
