To promote shared decision-making (SDM) during discharge planning of patients with stroke, a patient decision aid (PtDA) was implemented in seven Dutch hospitals. This mixed-methods process evaluation assessed: 1) PtDA use, 2) the SDM process, 3) facilitators and barriers influencing health care professional (HCP) adoption PtDA, 4) HCP experiences PtDA. Rates use were derived from hospital registries log data. levels consultations quantitatively assessed using OPTION-5 (score range 0-100);...
Abstract Background Patients with a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke are at increased risk of developing cognitive impairment in the subacute phase. At present, effects exercise on functioning following TIA not fully known. The purpose this trial was to investigate effect global cognition. Methods MoveIT is single-centre, observer-blinded, randomized controlled involving 1-year intervention consisting 12-week group program, combined three counselling visits physiotherapists over...
Patients with transient ischaemic attack (TIA) or stroke are at risk for cognitive impairment and dementia. Currently, there is no known effective strategy to prevent this decline. Increasing evidence exists that physical exercise beneficial function. However, in patients TIA who of dementia, only a few trials have been conducted. In study, we aim investigate whether programme (MoveIT) can decline the acute phase after minor stroke.
The aim of this study was to gain insight into experiences patients with acute stroke regarding information provision and their preferred involvement in decision-making processes during the initial period hospitalisation. A sequential explanatory design used two independent cohorts stroke, starting a survey after discharge from hospital (cohort 1) followed by observations structured interviews hospitalisation 2). Quantitative data were analysed descriptively. In total, 72 participated (52...
Background: Despite the beneficial effect of cardiac rehabilitation after myocardial infarction, a program to improve cardiorespiratory fitness and influence secondary prevention has not been implemented for ischemic stroke transie
Abstract Background Patient involvement in discharge planning of patients with stroke can be accomplished by providing personalized outcome information and promoting shared decision-making. The aim this study was to develop a patient decision aid (PtDA) for hospitalized stroke. Methods A convergent mixed methods design used, starting needs assessments among health care professionals (HCPs). Results these were used the PtDA integrated several co-creation sessions. Subsequently, acceptability...
Fatigue is a common complaint and disabling symptom among patients following transient ischemic attack (TIA) or minor stroke. In with stroke, decreased cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) believed to be related increased severity of post-stroke fatigue (PSF). However, this association between PSF CRF in TIA stroke has been less investigated, currently there no proven treatment for PSF. We aimed determine the find out whether was distorted by confounders. A cross-sectional study conducted total...
