Mediating effect of post-stroke depression between activities of daily living and health-related quality of life: meta-analytic structural equation modeling

Therefore, ADL and PSD reductions should be improved to achieve better HRQoL of stroke survivors. Future studies should continue to discuss other factors affecting HRQoL to achieve optimal recovery in stroke survivors.

Development of an indicator set for the evaluation of the population-based integrated healthcare model 'Gesundes Kinzigtal' (Healthy Kinzigtal).
CONCLUSION: On the basis of a broadly based research and participatory development process, a set of indicators has been developed that enables comprehensive evaluation of the regional quality of care of cross-indication, integrated care models focusing on common diseases. In order to be able to increasingly evaluate aspects of care coordination and patient orientation, health promotion as well as nursing, palliative and emergency care in the future, it would be helpful if routine data were collected or made accessible in these areas as well.

However, a substantial increase in the overall OAT uptake and a decrease of the depression-associated deficit in OAT were seen over the period during which OAT was developed through the introduction of new oral anticoagulation therapy.

ConclusionsThe level of HRQoL of older people with OH was significantly lower than that of older people without.
