Longitudinal changes in activity participation in the first year post-stroke and association with depressive symptoms.
CONCLUSIONS: Activity participation improves during the first year of recovery post-stroke in stroke survivors with mild neurological stroke severity and is associated with depressive symptoms over time and at 12-months post-stroke. Implications for rehabilitation Improvements in participation occur in the first 3-months post-stroke and continue to a lesser degree in the first year after stroke. Depressive symptoms are associated with lower participation at 12-months. A multidimensional approach targeting depressive symptoms and increasing participation in the early months post-stroke and throughout the first-year after st...

Preferences regarding the timing of such counseling vary, creating challenges for optimizing the delivery of this care. Implications for Stroke Rehabilitation Sexual dysfunction is common after stroke, but is frequently not addressed by healthcare providers. Many stroke survivors experience sexual dysfunction and indicate a desire for additional information and counseling from healthcare providers.

Exploring the experience of psychological morbidity and service access in community dwelling stroke survivors: a follow-up study.
Conclusions: The experience of psychological morbidity persists beyond 12 months post-stroke, having a profound impact on community access, and social participation. Clinical implications are a need for long-term psychological monitoring post-stroke and for ongoing rehabilitation that addresses disability, community participation and social support. Implications for Rehabilitation Psychological distress post-stroke is complex and persists over time, thus requiring longer term monitoring beyond the first 12 months of stroke onset. Longer term access to allied health can play a significant role in providing interventions tha...

Stroke-Specific Quality of Life one-year post-stroke in two Scandinavian country-regions with different organisation of rehabilitation services: a prospective study.
Conclusions: Successful improvements in one-year functioning in both country-regions may result from optimising long-term rehabilitation services to address cognitive, emotional, and social functioning. Stroke-Specific Quality of Life one-year post-stroke could be explained by individual factors, such as pre-stroke dependency and mental health, rather than differences in the organisation of subacute rehabilitation services.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONThe stroke-specific health related quality of life (SS-QOL) assessment tool captures multidimensional effects of a stroke from the perspective of the patient, which is clin...

Nurse-led stroke aftercare addressing long-term psychosocial outcome: a  comparison to care-as-usual.
CONCLUSIONS: Nurse-led stroke aftercare showed to be beneficial for emotional well-being in comparison to care-as-usual. Providing psychoeducation and emotional support seem effective elements but adding other therapeutic elements such as self-management strategies might increase the effectiveness of nurse-led stroke aftercare. Implications for rehabilitation Routine stroke follow-up care should pay attention to psychosocial and emotional outcome in a systematic manner, in addition to secondary prevention. Healthcare professionals such as (specialized) nurses are needed to appropriately address the hidden cognitive and emo...

Acute phase factors associated with the course of depression during the first 18 months after first-ever stroke.
Conclusions: Several demographic and acute phase factors were associated with a more severe PSD course following stroke. Psychosocial support that begins in the acute phase and continues throughout the rehabilitation process may be helpful in improving both physical and psychological outcomes following stroke. Implications for Rehabilitation Depression levels are stable during the first 18 months after first-ever stroke. The course of post-stroke depression is related to the level of physical functioning in the acute phase, whether the stroke survivors live alone and their employment status at the time of stroke. Psycholog...

Self-management and self-efficacy in stroke survivors: validation of the Italian version of the stroke self-efficacy questionnaire.
CONCLUSIONS: The findings supported the validity of the Italian version of the Stroke Self-efficacy questionnaire. It measures two dimensions of self-efficacy, activity and self-management, strongly related to independence and recovery after stroke and therefore it represents a useful tool to assess self-efficacy. CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: The Italian version of the Stroke Self-efficacy questionnaire is a valid and reliable measure of self-efficacy. Clinicians can use this instrument to target rehabilitation interventions according to patients' individual confidence in their functional and self-management capaci...

Reduction in retained activity participation is associated with depressive symptoms 3 months after mild stroke: An observational cohort study.
CONCLUSION: The findings of this study establish the association of depressive symptoms with retained activity participation 3 months post-stroke in stroke survivors with mild neurological stroke severity. Clinical rehabilitation recommendations to enhance activity participation need to account for those with even mild depressive symptoms post-stroke. PMID: 28121336 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Relationship between pre-stroke physical activity and symptoms of post-stroke anxiety and depression: An observational study.
CONCLUSION: In this group of patients with mild symptoms of emotional distress, it seems that pre-stroke physical activity might be protective against post-stroke depression, but not anxiety. Many patients with mild-to-moderate stroke report being equally active before and after the stroke. PMID: 31565752 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Clinical and functional differences between right and left stroke with and without contralateral spatial neglect.
CONCLUSION: In left and right stroke rehabilitants with equally mild neglect, those with left stroke had higher stroke severity, cognitive and total disability and dependence level. Neglect severity correlated with right or left stroke severity and functional ability, moderate to severe neglect correlated significantly more with functioning. Neglect severity was independently associated with functional outcome in right stroke. PMID: 32488286 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

The course of depressive symptoms in the first 12 months post-stroke and its association with unmet needs
CONCLUSIONS: Depressive symptoms three months post-stroke were likely to persist or recur during the first 12 months post-stroke. Depressive symptoms are associated with unmet needs. These results suggest that routine monitoring of depressive symptoms and unmet needs should be considered post-stroke.Implications for rehabilitationPatients with depressive symptoms three months post-stroke have a high risk of developing persistent or recurrent depressive symptoms during the first 12 months post-stroke.Unmet needs are associated with both non-consistent and persistent depressive symptoms post-stroke.These results suggest that...

Stroke health professionals' management of depression after post-stroke aphasia: a qualitative study.
Conclusion: This study demonstrates that health professionals are challenged by and limited in managing depression after post-stroke aphasia. Health professionals have the opportunity to improve services through the translation of evidence-based interventions. The integration of mental health care into stroke rehabilitation may be achieved through policy development, leadership and specialist training. Implications for rehabilitation People with aphasia need routine mood screening using aphasia-specific clinical tools and communication support. Stroke health professionals report a need for communication partner training to...

Factors associated with community ambulation in chronic stroke.
CONCLUSION: Balance self-efficacy may be a significant determinant in the attainment of independent community ambulation post-stroke. This suggests that physical aspects such as gait speed and walking balance should not be considered in isolation when addressing community ambulation post-stroke. Implications for Rehabilitation Balance self-efficacy may play a significant role in the attainment of independent community ambulation in a chronic stroke population. Physiotherapy interventions addressing community ambulation post-stroke should consider methods for improving balance self-efficacy in chronic stroke, such as self m...
