Official title
A Feasibility Study to Explore Rehabilitation Outcomes, Usability and User Experience of a Web-Based Platform for Delivering Treatment for Cognitive and Language Impairment Amongst Adults With Acquired Neurological Disorders
Overview
The goal of this feasibility study is to explore rehabilitation outcomes, usability and user experience of a web-based platform for delivering treatment for cognitive and language impairment amongst adults with acquired neurological disorders in critical illness and stroke disorders. The main question it aims to answer is: " Is it feasible to use a web-based platform for delivering rehabilitation treatment in a large acute National Health Care Organisation" Participants will undergo therapy sessions prescribed by therapists on a web-based platform instead of the conventional paper-based therapy sessions for their cognitive and speech rehabilitation needs.
Detailed description
The population group will be adult patients admitted to critical care unit and stroke unit and diagnosed to have speech and cognitive impairment.
The intervention is to provide therapy prescribed by therapist through Cognishine, a web-based platform instead of paper-based therapy session.
The primary objective is to assess feasibility of using the Cognishine web-based platform in a large NHS Trust in acute care setting measured by number of completed therapy sessions, per patient days.
Interventions
- Behavioral a Web-Based Platform for delivering treatment for cognitive and language impairment amongst adults with acquired neurological disorders
The Cognishine platform is a digital (web-based) general health and wellness monitoring platform. It is designed to support health care professionals specialised in rehabilitation of patients with neurological disorders, through a wide range of multi-media based generalised activities across speech, language, social-emotional, and cognition.
Primary outcome measures
- To assess the feasibility of using the Cognishine web-based platform in a large NHS Trust in acute care setting. [Time frame: From recruitment until discharge from rehabilitation therapy or discharge from hospital, which ever comes first. Time frames will vary dependent on patient recovery .The anticipated time frame is 1 to 6 months. Maximum follow up is 12 months.]
Secondary outcome measures (5)
- To assess staff and patient experience of using the Cognishine platform during therapy sessions. [Time frame: Patients will be asked to complete this on discharge from hospital. Therapists will be asked to complete the questionnaire one month after starting the study (in the middle of recruitment)]
- To generate qualitative data about how to improve the end user experience for therapist to target barriers to implementation [Time frame: 12 month into the study.]
- To generate preliminary data on the rehabilitation progress associated with the use of the Cognishine platform. [Time frame: As recovery is highly individualised time frames will vary amongst participants .It is anticipated that the time frame will range from 1 to 6 months.]
- To generate preliminary data on the rehabilitation progress associated with the use of the Cognishine platform. [Time frame: As recovery is highly individualised time frames will vary amongst participants .It is anticipated that the time frame will range from 1 to 6 months]
- To generate preliminary data on the rehabilitation progress associated with the use of the Cognishine platform. [Time frame: As recovery is highly individualised time frames will vary amongst participants .It is anticipated that the time frame will range from 1 to 6 months.]
