Caregiver burden after stroke: changes over time?
This study aims to describe the course of burden in individual caregivers in the first year after stroke.
METHODS: This study is part of the Stroke Cohort Outcomes of REhabilitation study, a multicentre, longitudinal cohort study including consecutive stroke patients admitted to two rehabilitation facilities. Caregivers were asked to complete the Caregiver Strain Index and questions on their sociodemographic characteristics 6 and 12 months post admission. Patients' sociodemographic and clinical characteristics were extracted from medical records.
RESULTS: A total of 129 caregivers were included, 72 completed th...

Managing the severely impaired arm after stroke: a mixed-methods study with qualitative emphasis.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings extend our understanding about how individuals manage their severely impaired upper limb and can be used to inform a novel stroke self-management intervention. Implications for rehabilitation Stroke survivors' experiences of managing the severely affected upper limb may inform rehabilitation practice to foster self-management. Rehabilitation professionals may actively support stroke survivors in choosing from, and expanding on professionals' advice and guidance. Maintaining a positive and hopeful outlook is important to many stroke survivors. Professionals should be mindful of the potential impa...

Factors affecting outcome in participation one year after stroke: a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSION: In order to increase participation in every-day life for people after stroke it appears to be important to use an enhanced client-centred approach, particularly when working within in-patient rehabilitation and with people with moderate or severe stroke.

Return to work predicts perceived participation and autonomy by individuals with stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: Being able to return to work after a stroke seems to be important for self-perceived participation/autonomy. This emphasizes the importance of work-oriented information and rehabilitation after a stroke at working age. Implications for rehabilitation The current study shows that the majority report high self-perceived participation and autonomy in everyday life and 59% are working 5 years after a stroke in working age. To work 5 years after a stroke was a significant predictor for self-perceived participation and autonomy in everyday life. Since stroke is becoming more common among working age persons and work...

A systematic review and meta-analysis of the effects of cardiac rehabilitation interventions on cognitive impairment following stroke.
Conclusions: This review highlights that there are very few studies of delivery of cardiac rehabilitation to stroke patients and that the inclusion of cognitive interventions is even less common, despite the high prevalence of post-stroke cognitive impairment. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATION The cardiac rehabilitation model has the potential to be expanded to include patients post-stroke given the commonality of secondary prevention needs, thereby becoming a cardiovascular rehabilitation model. Up to half of patients experience cognitive impairment after stroke; suggesting that a post-stroke cardiovascular rehabilitation m...

Factors influencing implementation of aerobic exercise after stroke: a systematic review.
Conclusions: Key factors influencing the implementation of aerobic exercise after stroke included characteristics of the staff and intervention and system-level issues, some of which are modifiable. Further research should evaluate strategies which specifically target these modifiable factors to facilitate implementation in practice.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONAerobic exercise after stroke is an effective intervention but there are challenges to implementation from a staff and system perspective.Any changes to the identified factors should be tailored to suit the staff group and setting.Provision of training and knowled...

From recovery to regaining control of life - the perspectives of people with stroke, their carers and health professionals.
Conclusion: Findings suggest the importance of a dyadic perspective and a gradual increase in people with stroke and carers' active engagement. Professionals' approach throughout rehabilitation should be modified according to people with stroke and carers' changing needs and expectations.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONDivergence in perspectives about priorities and goals between the person with stroke their carers and healthcare professionals can lead to the creation of different agendas within rehabilitation.An open dialogue and decision-making process that involves both the person with stroke and carers is highly recomme...

Six-month reviews for stroke survivors: a study of the modified Greater Manchester Stroke Assessment Tool with care home residents.
CONCLUSION: The modified GM-SAT provides a feasible means of conducting six-month reviews for stroke survivors in care homes and helps identify important needs. Further modifications have enhanced acceptability. Full implementation into practice requires staff training and organizational changes.

The use of shoulder orthoses post-stroke: effects on balance and gait. A systematic review.
CONCLUSIONS: So far no strong evidence is available regarding a potential benefit of wearing an arm sling on balance and gait for stroke patients. However, further research with longer intervention periods, can be useful to determine if stroke patients in the early phases after stroke or with persistent UL paresis might possibly benefit from wearing an arm sling.

Early mobilisation post-stroke: a systematic review and meta-analysis of individual participant data.
CONCLUSION: The commencement of mobilisation should only be considered after 24 h post-stroke. Further research is required to identify safe, optimal dose, and timing of EM post-stroke. IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATION Patients who commenced mobilisation early after stroke had worse outcome than usual care. Insufficient detail about mobilisation interventions or usual care in many studies limits any further interpretation. The commencement of mobilisation should only be considered after 24-h post-stroke.

Predictors for self-reported feeling of depression three months after stroke: A longitudinal cohort study
CONCLUSION: Impaired cognition early after stroke could not predict self-reported feeling of depression 3 months post-stroke. Compared with male patients, female patients had twice the odds of self-reported feeling of depression.PMID:33739435 | DOI:10.2340/16501977-2816
