IJERPH, Vol. 18, Pages 4129: Comparison of Cost-Effectiveness between Inpatient and Home-Based Post-Acute Care Models for Stroke Rehabilitation in Taiwan
Willy Chou Stroke rehabilitation focuses on alleviating post-stroke disability. Post-acute care (PAC) offers an intensive rehabilitative program as transitional care following acute stroke. A novel home-based PAC program has been initiated in Taiwan since 2019. Our study aimed to compare the current inpatient PAC model with a novel home-based PAC model in cost-effectiveness and functional recovery for stroke patients in Taiwan. One hundred ninety-seven stroke patients eligible for the PAC program were divided into two different health interventional groups. One received rehabilitation during hospitalization, and the o...

IJERPH, Vol. 18, Pages 7552: Economic Burden of Stroke Disease: A Systematic Review
The objective of this study was to analyze the burden in consequence of stroke. This research used a systematic review method. Furthermore, a search for articles was carried out in June–July 2020. Four databases were used to search articles from 2015 to 2020. Eligible studies were identified, analyzed, and reported following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. The inclusion criteria were prospective cost studies, retrospective cost studies, database analysis, mathematical models, surveys, and COI studies that assess burden of stroke in primary and referral healthcar...

The costs associated with stroke care continuum: a systematic review
AbstractStroke, a leading cause of death and long-term disability, has a considerable social and economic impact. It is imperative to investigate stroke-related costs. The main goal was to conduct a systematic literature review on the described costs associated with stroke carecontinuum to better understand the evolution of the economic burden and logistic challenges. This research used a systematic review method. We performed a search in PubMed/MEDLINE, ClinicalTrial.gov, Cochrane Reviews, and Google Scholar confined to publications from January 2012 to December 2021. Prices were adjusted using consumer price indices of t...

IJERPH, Vol. 16, Pages 3472: Exploration of Medical Trajectories of Stroke Patients Based on Group-Based Trajectory Modeling
In this study, we used group-based trajectory modeling (GBTM) to study the characteristics of various groups of patients hospitalized with ACVD. In this research, the patient data were derived from the 1 million sampled cases in the National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD) in Taiwan. Cases who had been admitted to hospitals fewer than four times or more than eight times were excluded. Characteristics of the ACVD patients were collected, including age, mortality rate, medical expenditure, and length of hospital stay for each admission. We then performed GBTM to examine hospitalization patterns in patients who had...

Using swing resistance and assistance to improve gait symmetry in individuals post-stroke.
Abstract A major characteristic of hemiplegic gait observed in individuals post-stroke is spatial and temporal asymmetry, which may increase energy expenditure and the risk of falls. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of swing resistance/assistance applied to the affected leg on gait symmetry in individuals post-stroke. We recruited 10 subjects with chronic stroke who demonstrated a shorter step length with their affected leg in comparison to the non-affected leg during walking. They participated in two test sessions for swing resistance and swing assistance, respectively. During the adaptation p...

IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 12174: Health Promotion Programs Can Mitigate Public Spending on Hospitalizations for Stroke: An Econometric Analysis of the Health Gym Program in the State of Pernambuco, Brazil
da Health promotion programs can reduce morbidity and mortality from chronic diseases, as well as public spending on health. The current study aims to evaluate the effects of the Health Gym Program on expenditures on hospitalizations for stroke in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. This public policy impact assessment used an econometric model that combines the difference-in-difference estimator with propensity score matching. Data referring to the health, demographic, and socioeconomic characteristics of the 185 municipalities in Pernambuco were collected for the period from 2007 to 2019. Validation tests were carried o...

Associations between quality of life and socioeconomic factors, functional impairments and dissatisfaction with received information and home-care services among survivors living at home two years after stroke onset
This study explores the associations between QoL and socioeconomic factors, functional impairments and self-reported dissatisfaction with received information and home-care services among survivors two years after stroke onset. This problem remains partially addressed though optimal information and services may improve survivors' QoL. Methods: Stroke-survivors admitted to all hospitals in Luxembourg 18 months or more previously were identified using the only care-expenditure-reimbursement national system database. The clinical diagnosis was confirmed. Ninety four patients aged 65 years and living at home were interviewed t...

Shift work and risk of stroke: A meta-analysis
Stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality which is accounted for 11.8% of total deaths worldwide [1]. On average, every 4min, someone died of a stroke. Stroke accounted for ≈1 of every 20 deaths in the United States, with serious consequences for health care expenditure [2]. It has been estimated that the total direct medical expenditure on stroke is at least $71.6 billion in 2012 and will be $184.1 billion in 2030, this creates a major public health burden [3]. Moreover, approximately 10% of all strokes occur in individuals 18 to 50years of age, which is the main productivity [4].

Compensatory relationship of mechanical energy in paretic limb during sit-to-stand motion of stroke survivors
Hum Mov Sci. 2023 Jan 11;88:103052. doi: 10.1016/j.humov.2022.103052. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTo enable patients with stroke to live comfortable and efficient daily lives, it is crucial to understand the energetic characteristics of their sit-to-stand motion. Although the patients have reduced muscle strength in their paretic limbs, their entire body mechanical energy expenditure during the sit-to-stand motion is not different from that of healthy adults. Nevertheless, it is unclear whether this mismatch in energy expenditure is due to co-contraction of the paretic limb or compensation by the sound limb. Thus, this s...
