What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Low daily steps and prolonged sedentary behavior are associated with reduced functional outcomes and quality of life in patients with stroke. The goal of this research project is to test the effect of increasing daily step counts and reducing sedentary time early after stroke, on functional mobility and global disability outcomes. The investigators aim to recruit 150 participants, aged 50 years and over, within three months of stroke onset, whom have recently returned or are returning home from hospital and are able to walk 5 meters with or without a gait aid. At baseline, demographic and stroke characteristics will be determined and documented. A battery of impairment, psychosocial, and functional measures will be completed. Step counts (primary outcome) and sedentary time will be determined from activPAL accelerometry. Following randomization, a sedentary behaviour change and guided
