Design outcomes

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary objective of this project is to test the feasibility of one of the standard therapies in the rehabilitation centre "Reha Rheinfelden" for stroke patients with cognitive deficits: "Neurotraining by Verena Schweizer in combination with occupation-based intervention". The following criteria are central to this feasibility study: Recruitment potential, duration and effort for a number of 10 study participants / Suitability of the inclusion and exclusion criteria of the participants / Practicability of the chosen assessments (MoCA and AMPS) / Practicability of the intervention in the clinical rehabilitation setting / Optimal ratio (frequency) of neurotraining and occupation-based intervention. / Acceptance of the therapy from the patients' perspective (questionnaire according to own design but based on the short scale of intrinsic motivation according to Wilde, Bätz, Kovaleva 2009) / Possible determination of the number of cases for a larger study | — |
