More Details: Abstract Background Stroke survivors suffer an overall loss of social participation. However, the interventions aiming at improving social participation have not yet been well-established. There is a need to synthesize existing knowledge on clinical interventions aiming at improving social participation among people with stroke. Objective To describe the patterns of intervention that have been applied to stroke survivors to improve social participation and to determine the preliminary effects of these patterns. Methods Eight online databases, including Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Medline, CINAHL plus, PsycINFO, and Scoups were searched with predefined search terms from inception to September 22, 2022. References of included articles and previous reviews were also checked to identify additional studies. Two reviewers independently selected eligible studies and extracted data from the included articles. Results A total of 98 studies were included, of which only 25 studies considered social participation as primary outcome of clinical interventions. The patterns of intervention were various, consisting of exercise-based intervention, occupational therapy, self-management program, and complex intervention. Of the 25 studies, eight studies found a positive effect of relative clinical intervention on social participation for stroke survivors. Of note, the same modality of intervention such as exercise-based intervention and self-management program produced paradoxical conclusion on social participation. Conclusion Exercised-based intervention, occupational therapy, self-management program, and complex intervention were important intervention modalities for the improvement of social participation among stroke survivors. Even though the preliminary effectiveness on social participation seems to be potentially positive, further high-quality researches are still required to reach a consensus to achieve optimal social participation among stroke survivors.
