Interventions

Four stroke services performing follow-up appointments will recruit a total of 96 participants, who are: stroke survivors within 7-months of stroke, aged 18 years and over, and attending their first f
completed sPCI and participants’ feedback on its use immediately after the appointment
participants’ satisfaction and empowerment within one-week of the appointment
and participants’ quality-of-life and use of health services three-months later. A selection of participants and staff will be interviewed about their experiences of the study.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. The rate of completed sPCIs is measured using the number of sPCIs completed at the clinical follow-up appointment 2. sPCI use in consultation is measured using a participant's immediate feedback question on whether they recall the use of the sPCI in their consultation and audio recordings of consultations at clinical follow-up appointments and immediate feedback 3. Participant feedback on the use of sPCI is measured using an immediate feedback question on whether they recall the use of the sPCI in their consultation at immediate feedback 4. Patients completing sPCI is measured using the number of sPCIs completed at clinical follow-up appointments and process evaluation interviews 5. sPCI use during the consultation is measured using a participant's immediate feedback question on whether they recall the use of the sPCI in their consultation and audio recordings of consultations at clinical follow-up appointments and process evaluation interviews 6. Staff trained in sPCI use is measured using the number of staff trained during the training period and process evaluation interviews 7. sPCIs provided before the appointment are measured using the number of sPCIs sent to patients at the clinical follow-up appointment 8. Completed sPCIs available to staff conducting consultations are measured using data on consultation CRF about whether sPCI was available at the clinical follow-up appointment 9. Sites recruited are measured using the number of sites in the study at the end of the recruitment period 10. Participants recruited are measured using the number of participants recruited to the study at the end of the recruitment period 11. Eligibility rate is measured using screening logs at the end of the recruitment period 12. The recruitment rate is measured using screening logs and the number of participants recruited to the study at the end of the recruitment period 13. Retention/completion rates are measured using the number of completed 3-month questio
