About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a rehabilitation application on a smartphone, an app, can be used by adults who have had a stroke. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Are people who have had a stroke able to use the app? Is the app useful for people who have had a stroke? Will the app adapt to the needs of the person recovering from a stroke?
Researchers will compare the app to the usual rehabilitation a person receives after a stroke to see if the app can be used as part of a person's rehabilitation.
Participants will:
Use the app every day for 6 weeks Have an assessment with a rehabilitation research doctor before starting using the app and after completing using the app Keep a diary of the exercises that they do using the app

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Number of participants recruited to the study
In order to determine whether the use of the STRATIF-AI app with digital twin technology improves engagement with rehabilitation and to explore the acceptability of the technology to people who participating in inpatient rehabilitation following stroke we are measuring the number of participants who are recruited to the study.
Secondary outcomes
FIM+FAM
Functional Independence Measure and Functional Assessment Measure: standardised assessments of function after a stroke for a person participating in a rehabilitation programme
