Effects of I-STROKEFIT+ on Physical Fitness Among Community-Dwelling Stroke Survivors: A Pilot RCT

This pilot randomized controlled study will evaluate whether a 12-week integrated home-based physical fitness and self-management programme (i-StrokeFit+) can improve physical fitness and physical activity among community-dwelling stroke survivors. The programme combines aerobic exercise, strengthening exercises, stretching, and self-management strategies. The study hypothesizes that participants receiving i-StrokeFit+ will demonstrate greater improvements in physical fitness and physical activity compared with participants receiving stroke education and simple stretching exercises.
