Abstrakt: Background: Good rehabilitation adherence leads to effective post-stroke recovery. However, some recovering patients experience post-stroke depressive symptoms, which can affect post-stroke health outcomes. Previous studies have not examined the effect of a combination of rehabilitation adherence and depressive symptoms on recovery after a stroke.
Objectives: This study explored the combined predictive influence of rehabilitation adherence and post-stroke depressive symptoms on self-care abilities and quality of life in patients with stroke.
Methods: This prospective longitudinal study analyzed data from 75 stroke patients. We examined rehabilitation adherence (self-reported, five-point scale), post-stroke depressive symptoms (Taiwanese Depression Scale), self-care ability (Chinese versions of the Barthel Index and Lawton - Brody Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale), and post-stroke quality of life (World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF). Patients were followed up for six months after inclusion. The influence of rehabilitation adherence and post-stroke depressive symptoms on post-stroke self-care abilities and quality of life was examined using generalized estimating equations.
Results: The sample's mean age was 60.85 (±12.9) years. Patients with perfect rehabilitation adherence had better self-care abilities and quality of life than those with imperfect rehabilitation adherence. Patients without post-stroke depressive symptoms had a better quality of life than their counterparts. Patients with perfect rehabilitation adherence and no post-stroke depressive symptoms had better self-care abilities and quality of life than those with imperfect rehabilitation adherence and post-stroke depressive symptoms.
Conclusion: Both depressive symptoms and rehabilitation adherence behavior impacted the rehabilitation effect among patients who are recovering from a stroke.
