Psychometric properties of the Dutch SAQOL-39NL in a generic stroke population.
CONCLUSIONS: These data provide further evidence for the acceptability, internal consistency, and initial promising data on validity of the SAQOL-39NLg. Further research on structural validity and responsiveness to change is needed. PMID: 30380373 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Objective and subjective sleep problems and quality of life of rehabilitation in patients with mild to moderate stroke.
Conclusion: Objective sleep parameters (sleep onset latency and sleep efficiency) were found to be associated with quality of life during the early stage of rehabilitation in mild to moderate stroke patients. PMID: 31618116 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Prevalence of aphasia after stroke in a hospital population in southern Brazil: a retrospective cohort study.
Conclusions: PWA may need more health care during hospitalization, because of the severity of the stroke, and their frailty. Further studies are needed to assess the direct impact of aphasia on inpatients. PMID: 31687916 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Subacute ischemic stroke rehabilitation outcomes in working-age adults: The role of aphasia in cognitive functional independence.
CONCLUSIONS: We identified no significant differences in C-FIM outcomes (gain, efficiency and effectiveness) either in LOS between PWA and patients without aphasia, though C-FIM differences were significant at admission and discharge. Aphasia was a significant predictor of C-FIM gain and C-FIM at discharge. PMID: 32967590 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Understanding Stroke Survivorship: Expanding the Concept of Poststroke Disability Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Stroke survivors have more participation restrictions than can be accounted for by sociodemographic profiles and comorbidity burden. Future work aimed at improving physical capacity, reducing depressive and anxiety symptoms, and improving aphasia/dysarthria has potential to enhance participation.

Methodological Factors in Determining Risk of Dementia After Transient Ischemic Attack and Stroke: (III) Applicability of Cognitive Tests Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Substantial numbers of patients with TIA and stroke are untestable with short cognitive tests. Future studies should report data on untestable patients and those with problems with testing in whom the likelihood of dementia is high.

Motor recovery in post-stroke patients with aphasia: the role of specific linguistic abilities.
CONCLUSIONS: Motor function at admission resulted as the variable that most affects the motor recovery of post-stroke patients with aphasia after rehabilitation. A linguistic test requiring also non-linguistic abilities, including attention and working memory (i.e. Token test) is an independent predictor as well.

Assessing chronic stroke survivors with aphasia sheds light on prevalence of spatial neglect.
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates the need to administer functional neglect assessments in left-brain stroke and to include individuals with aphasia in research. PMID: 27322860 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy for post-stroke non-fluent aphasia: A critical review.
CONCLUSION: There are some strong studies evaluating the efficacy of rTMS in non-fluent stroke patients but further research is required to fully establish the usefulness of this treatment. Future directions and limitations are presented. PMID: 28549391 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Audiovisual speech segmentation in post-stroke aphasia: a pilot study.
Conclusion: Our findings show that speech segmentation disorder may exist in PWA. This points to the importance of assessing and training speech segmentation after stroke. Further studies should investigate the characteristics of PWA who use visual speech cues during sentence processing. PMID: 31369358 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Methodological Factors in Determining Rates of Dementia in Transient Ischemic Attack and Stroke: (I) Impact of Baseline Selection Bias Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— Exclusion of patients unavailable for assessment, and other widely used selection criteria, results in underestimation of the measured rate of dementia associated with transient ischemic attack and stroke.

Functional Gain After Inpatient Stroke Rehabilitation: Correlates and Impact on Long-Term Survival Brief Reports
Conclusions— Several factors are independently associated with functional gain after SR. Our findings strongly suggest that the magnitude of functional improvement is a powerful predictor of long-term mortality in patients admitted for SR.

Stress and depression scales in aphasia: relation between the aphasia depression rating scale, stroke aphasia depression questionnaire-10, and the perceived stress scale.
CONCLUSIONS: The SADQ-10 and ADRS appear to be acceptable measures of depressive symptoms in aphasia patients. Measurements of perceived stress may also be an important factor in assessment of depressive symptoms. PMID: 27348232 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Damage to the Left Precentral Gyrus Is Associated With Apraxia of Speech in Acute Stroke Clinical Sciences

Survivor gives us a lens into regional systems of care for acute ischemic stroke in North Dakota
I just got back from the North Dakota Mission: Lifeline STEMI and Acute Stroke Conference in Bismark, ND. I had a great time and I learned a lot. I often get asked to speak in various venues about acute STEMI and 12-lead ECG interpretation, but for this conference they wanted me to talk mostly about stroke. That turned out to be a good thing because it forced me to read the 2013 AHA / ASA Guildelines for the Early Management of Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke to make sure I was asking intelligent questions during the panel discussion (which I moderated) and also giving accurate information for the class I taught about ...
