The Effect of Home Base Physical Activity Program based on the BASNEF Model on Motor Recovery in Patients with Stroke. Home Health Care Serv Q. 2020 May 13;:1-14 Authors: Esteki-Ghashghaei F, Saadatnia M, Khorvash F, Shahnazi H Abstract The present study aimed to determine the effect of education based on the BASNEF model on the physical activity and improvement of motor activity in patients with stroke. This randomized control trial study was conducted on 40 patients with acute ischemic stroke admitted to a teaching hospital in Isfahan, Iran from August 2017 to September 2018. The patients were randomly divided into intervention and control groups. The intervention included personal education and a manual CD of physical activity for the intervention group. After education, the mean scores of the BASNEF model's constructs in the intervention group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P < .001). Furthermore, the motor ability of the intervention group in upper and lower extremities was significantly higher than that of the control group (p < .001). Interventions based on educational models can increase the motivation of patients with stroke in performing recommended physical activity. PMID: 32401625 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
