Summary

Investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to assess intervention efficacy of telehealth delivery of the GLB-CVA (tGLB-CVA) compared to a 6-month wait-list control (WLC) in partnership with a diverse group of patient partners and peer mentors.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals who have had a stroke or heart attack. Participants should be stable enough to engage in lifestyle changes via telehealth. Specific eligibility details are not provided, but typically, trials require participants to meet certain health criteria.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the effectiveness of a program called Group Lifestyle Balance (GLB-CVA), delivered through telehealth, for people who've had strokes. It's compared against waiting for 6 months without this intervention in a randomized controlled trial setup.
What are the potential side effects?
Since GLB-CVA involves lifestyle modifications delivered via telehealth, side effects may not be as prominent as drug interventions. However, any potential side effects are not detailed here and would depend on individual health conditions.

Group I: Telehealth Group LIfestyle Balance for People with Stroke (tGLB-CVA)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
The telehealth Group Lifestyle Balance for People post stroke (tGLB-CVA) is a one-year program with 22 sessions. The tGLB-CVA is a modification of the Diabetes Prevention Program Group Lifestyle Balance (DPP-GLB) developed by the University of Pittsburgh Diabetes Prevention Support Center (DPSC). It begins with 12 weekly sessions called the Core Program, followed by a Transition phase consisting of 2 bi-weekly and 2 monthly sessions, and a Support Phase consisting of 6 monthly sessions. The goal of the tGLB-CVA program is to help the participant achieve and maintain a 5-7% weight-loss through healthy eating and physical activity.
Group II: Wait List Control (WLC)Active Control1 Intervention
Participants randomized to the wait list control (WLC) will begin the telehealth Group Lifestyle Balance for People post stroke (tGLB-CVA) intervention 6 months after enrolling into the study and completing a baseline assessment.
