Developing interventions to address sexuality after stroke: findings from a four-panel modified Delphi study.
CONCLUSION: This study presents opinions from stroke survivors, partners of stroke survivors, clinicians and researchers. The information about content, timing and mode of delivery will be used to develop and evaluate a comprehensive sexuality rehabilitation programme. PMID: 30895327 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Validity of an enhanced EQ-5D-5L measure with an added cognitive dimension in patients with stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: The EQ-5D-5L+C, which includes a cognitive domain that is highly significant for stroke patients, showed increased content validity and good discriminative ability, without losing internal consistency. PMID: 32070131 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Factors influencing the amount of therapy received during inpatient stroke care: an analysis of data from the UK Sentinel Stroke National Audit Programme.
CONCLUSION: The amount of stroke therapy is associated with unmodifiable patient-related characteristics and modifiable organizational factors in that more therapy was associated with higher therapy and nurse staffing levels, specialist stroke rehabilitation services, timely therapy assessments, and the presence of weekend and early discharge services.

Stroke survivors' perceptions of their sedentary behaviours three months after stroke.
Conclusions: This information will inform evidence-based sedentary behaviour interventions after stroke.Implications for rehabilitationHigher levels of sedentary behaviours are associated with poor health and stroke survivors are highly sedentary.Stroke survivors have complex reasons for spending time in sedentary behaviours including fatigue, pain, fear of falling and environmental barriers.Future interventions should educate stroke survivors on the health consequences of sedentary behaviours and encourage an increased awareness of time spent sedentary.Supporting stroke survivors to identify enjoyable and achievable activ...

The influence of psychological factors and mood on the course of participation up to four years after stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Participation improves in the first 12 months after stroke and stabilizes afterwards. Mood problems and less adaptive psychological factors negatively influence the course of participation over time up to four years after stroke. Implications for rehabilitation Follow-up assessments after stroke should not only focus on cognitive and motor impairment, but also encompass screening on mood problems and adaptive psychological factors. Implementation of a routine follow-up assessment one year after stroke can be beneficial as restrictions in participation are unlikely to diminish spontaneously from then onwards....

"Factors influencing sedentary time and physical activity early after stroke: a qualitative study".
CONCLUSION: Stroke survivors and their carers need a clearer understanding of the role of physical activity and risks of sedentary time during stroke recovery. Physical activity enablers included consistent communication, building confidence and skills to self-manage activity before discharge. Implications for Rehabilitation Inpatient rehabilitation and early after discharge may be an important time-point to support stroke survivors to establish long term physical activity behaviours before contact with healthcare professionals reduces. To reduce sedentary behaviour, people need to understand the health benefits of breakin...

How active are stroke patients in physiotherapy sessions and is this associated with stroke severity?
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with greater stroke severity participate in less active exercise in physiotherapy sessions than those with lesser stroke severity. Reasons for this disparity warrant further investigation.Implications for rehabilitationStroke patients with higher levels of severity engage in less active exercise during rehabilitation.A discrepancy exists between patients' planned physiotherapy session lengths and actual session lengths during stroke rehabilitation.Physiotherapists should be mindful in how to adapt their sessions (particularly with severe stroke patients) to maximise the amount of activity they underta...

Perseverance with home-based upper limb practice after stroke: perspectives of stroke survivors and their significant others
CONCLUSION: Persevering with practice is multifaceted for stroke survivors. All facets need to be addressed in the design of strategies to enhance stroke survivors' ability to persevere and in turn, enhance their potential for continued upper limb recovery.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONMany stroke survivors do not persevere with long-term home-based upper limb practice despite the belief that high dose practice will promote continued recovery.Therapists need to support stroke survivors to setup individualised goal-based home programs that they can complete independently, or with support, within their everyday life.Stroke ...

The Figure-of-Eight Walk test: reliability and associations with stroke-specific impairments.
Conclusions: The F8W test time is a reliable measurement tool, which is able to differentiate the patients with stroke and healthy elderly subjects and correlated well with stroke-specific impairments and walking tests. The F8W is a reliable measurement tool for assessing the advanced walking performance of subjects with chronic stroke. Implication for Rehabilitation The F8W test times have excellent intra-rater, inter-rater and test-retest reliabilities in patients with chronic stroke. The F8W test times were also found to be significantly associated with FMA-LE, BBS, FTSTST, TUG scores and 10MWT. A F8W test time of 8.2â€...

A comprehensive exercise program for a young adult male with Down syndrome who experienced a stroke.
Conclusion: Improved cardiorespiratory fitness, strength, balance and mobility provide preliminary evidence of the trainability of individuals with both DS and stroke. Future studies are warranted to investigate the role of exercise in risk factor reduction for primary and secondary prevention of stroke in people with DS. Implications for Rehabilitation Individuals with Down syndrome (DS) may be at heightened risk of stroke due to a combination of physiological conditions and lifestyle choices which contribute to reduced exercise capacity, accelerated aging patterns, moyamoya syndrome and physical inactivity as well as hig...

From physical and functional to continuity with pre-stroke self and participation in valued activities: A qualitative exploration of stroke survivors', carers' and physiotherapists' perceptions of physical activity after stroke.
Conclusions: Individualised interventions that account for social and environmental influences on behaviour appear vital to enabling survivors to participate in meaningful physical activities. Such interventions should facilitate development of shared perspectives among physiotherapists, carers and survivors of PA and related outcomes and provide tailored strategies to facilitate PA participation. Implications for Rehabilitation Physical activity after stroke rehabilitation is important for fitness, health, functioning and well-being. Reasons for survivors participating or not in physical activity after stroke are complex ...
