Background: Cognitive impairments, pain, and motor dysfunction are daunting challenges for stroke survivors, clinicians, and caregivers during rehabilitation programmes. There is a dearth of studies investigating the effectiveness of combining neurodevelopmental technique telerehabilitation-based exercises with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) for stroke survivors with mild cognitive impairments post-stroke. Objectives: The primary aim of this study is to investigate and compare the effects of Telerehabilitation-Based Exercises with or without Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on pain, motor and cognitive function in older adults with mild cognitive impairments post-stroke. Methods: A multi-arm parallel-group (three groups) randomized controlled trial study involving a minimum of 87 participants (29 per group) will be conducted. Participants will be randomized into either telerehabilitation programmes with tDCS, telerehabilitation programmes alone or conventional physiotherapy programmes. All participants will be treated 3 times weekly for 8 weeks (45 min of intervention per session). Discussion: The findings in this study are expected to guide the provision of effective and affordable rehabilitation for stroke survivors with mild cognitive impairment. |
