Video-based intervention may help to overcome these barriers.Purpose: To develop and test the feasibility of video-based telerehabilitation (TR) exercises for facilitating upper extremity motor function among stroke survivors.Method: The study was conducted in two phases: video development and feasibility testing. The research team developed the video. Feasibility was assessed using a single-group pre-test\u2013post-test design, focusing on adherence, acceptability, satisfaction, and motor function. A total of 30 stroke survivors were purposively recruited. Each participant received a 3-minute-42-second video-based TR program to be performed three times weekly over four weeks. Adherence and acceptability were monitored through participant-maintained diaries. Satisfaction and motor function were measured using the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire-8 (CSQ-8) and the Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT), respectively.Results: Twenty-nine participants (15 males) completed the study. The participants showed a strong commitment to the intervention with a 97% adherence rate. They accepted and reported the intervention as satisfactory. A remarkable score of satisfaction corroborates this based on the CSQ-8 (Mean [SD] = 28.6 [4.90]). A significant improvement in the WMFT was observed (p &lt; 0.001) with a large effect size (d = 1.14) post-intervention. The mean difference was 8.8, with a 95% confidence interval ranging from 4.75 to 12.9.Conclusion: The video-based TR is feasible and can be deployed as a supplementary intervention. Future evaluation of the intervention is warranted to establish its effectiveness.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.33393\/aop.2025.3456","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,31]],"date-time":"2025-10-31T11:27:25Z","timestamp":1761910045000},"page":"277-285","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Development and feasibility testing of a video-based exercise program for improving upper limb motor function among stroke survivors in a low-income setting"],"prefix":"10.33393","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2677-8561","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hafsat Maina","family":"Ali","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Surajo Kamilu","family":"Sulaiman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5538-2224","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jibrin Sammani","family":"Usman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7944-1866","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Muhammad Aliyu","family":"Abba","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5711-1639","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aminu Alhassan","family":"Ibrahim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8535-4163","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Umar Muhammad","family":"Bello","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8651-7323","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dauda","family":"Salihu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9214-3313","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Auwal","family":"Abdullahi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"18642","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"17534","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"1.
