Popis: Comorbidity decreases survival but it still remains unknown to what extent functional recovery after ischemic stroke is affected. The aim of this research was to determine the prevalence of the most common comorbidities in patients with ischemic stroke and to examine their predictive value on the functional status and recovery. In order to obtain relevant information for this research, we conducted a prospective study over a two-year period. It included patients with acute/subacute ischemic stroke who had inhospital rehabilitation treatment in our institution. Functional status of the patients was evaluated by the following three aspects at the beginning and at the end of rehabilitation treatment: Rivermead Mobility Index was used for mobility, Barthel Index for independence in activities of daily living, and modified Rankin Scale for total disability. Modified Charlston Comorbidity Index was used to assess comorbidity. Multivariate analysis was applied to evaluate the impact of recorded comorbidities on the patient functional outcome. Independent predictors of rehabilitation success in our study were the value of modified Charlston Comorbidity Index, atrial fibrillation and myocardial infarction. Our study demonstrated that patients with more comorbidities had worse functional outcome after stroke, so it is important to consider the comorbidity status when planning the rehabilitation treatment.
Komorbiditeti smanjuju preživljavanje nakon ishemijskog moždanog udara, ali još uvijek ostaje nepoznato koliki je njihov utjecaj na funkcijski oporavak. Cilj ovoga istraživanja bio je utvrditi učestalost najčešćih komorbiditeta u bolesnika s ishemijskim moždanim udarom i ispitati njihovu prediktivnu vrijednost na funkcijski status i oporavak. U cilju dobivanja relevantnih podataka za ovu studiju proveli smo prospektivno istraživanje u razdoblju od dvije godine. Studija je uključila bolesnike s akutnim/subakutnim ishemijskim moždanim udarom koji su imali bolnički rehabilitacijski tretman u našoj ustanovi. Funkcijsko stanje bolesnika je ocijenjeno s tri aspekta na početku i na kraju rehabilitacijskog tretmana: Indeks mobilnosti Rivermead je primijenjen za mobilnost, Barthelov indeks za neovisnost u aktivnostima svakodnevnog života, a modificirana Rankinova ljestvica za ukupnu onesposobljenost. Charlstonov indeks komorbiditeta modificiran za moždani udar je primijenjen za procjenu komorbiditeta u bolesnika. Multivarijatna analiza primijenjena je za procjenu utjecaja ispitivanih komorbiditeta na funkcionalni ishod bolesnika. Nezavisni prediktori uspjeha rehabilitacije u našem istraživanju bili su vrijednost Charlstonova indeksa komorbiditeta modificiranog za moždani udar, atrijska fibrilacija i infarkt miokarda. S obzirom na to da je naše istraživanje pokazalo kako bolesnici s većim brojem komorbiditeta postižu lošiji funkcijski ishod nakon ishemijskog moždanog udara, bitno je razmotriti komorbiditetni status pri planiranju rehabilitacijskog tretmana.
