Popis: Abstract Background Post-stroke depression (PSD) is closely associated with poor stroke prognosis. However, there are some challenges in identifying and assessing PSD. This study aimed to identify scales for PSD diagnosis, assessment, and follow-up that are straightforward, accurate, efficient, and reproducible. Methods A systematic literature search was conducted in 7 electronic databases from January 1985 to December 2023. Results Thirty-two studies were included, the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HDRS) had higher diagnostic accuracy for PSD. The sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic odds ratio of PHQ-9 or diagnosing any depression were 0.82, 0.87, and 29 respectively. And for HDRS, used for diagnosing major depression, the scores were 0.92, 0.89, and 94. Furthermore, these two scales also had higher diagnostic accuracy in assessing depressive symptoms during both the acute and chronic phases of stroke. In patients with post-stroke aphasia and cognitive impairment, highly diagnostic scales have not been identified for assessing depressive symptoms yet. Conclusions The PHQ-9 and HDRS scales are recommended to assess PSD. HDRS, which demonstrates high diagnostic performance, can replace structured interviews based on diagnostic criteria.
