Clinical Trial Summary

Aim: To examine the feasibility of a new treatment protocol in improving executive function deficits and participation in daily activities of adults with TBI at discharge and one month post-discharge. A double-blind (assessors) randomized control trial (RCT) with two groups, experimental and control. This study will include 40 adults hospitalized in the inpatient Head Trauma unit. Potential patients will be approached by occupational therapists working in the inpatient Head Trauma rehabilitation unit and be invited to participate in the study. If they agree, they will be asked to sign an informed consent form. Then they will undergo a screening assessment. Participants who are found eligible will be then administered a cognitive assessment battery. Then they will be randomly allocated to either the experimental (new treatment protocol) or the control (conventional therapy) group. In both groups, the intervention will include 18 treatment sessions of 45 minutes, between three to five times a week depending on the participant's state, over a period of four to six weeks. Following the intervention, participants will undergo the assessment again. Participation questionnaires will be administered by telephone one month post-discharge.
