To determine the quality of life and its relationship with socio-demographic and medical factors in patients with stroke.
Seventy patients with stroke seen in the neurology clinic on a follow-up visit; at least a period of 3 months of follow-up was included.
Data were collected using (a) a questionnaire to determine patients' socio-demographic factors, (b) Short Form-36 (SF-36) and (c) Perceived Social Support from the Family Scale.
The mean score of global quality of life in patients was 37.08±17.03, and the mean score on Perceived Social Support from the Family Scale was 11.21±7.12. The mean score of global quality of life varied significantly according to age, gender, education, profession, place of residence, comorbidities, affected brain area, disease duration and educational level of the caregiver.
These results showed a low mean quality-of-life score in patients with stroke. There is a positive and significant correlation between scores on the Perceived Social Support from the Family Scale and various aspects of quality of life, such as functional status, well-being, general health perception and global quality of life.
评估脑卒中患者的生活质量及其与社会人口学和医疗因素的关系。
在神经内科门诊随访的 70 例脑卒中患者;至少随访 3 个月。
使用(a)问卷确定患者的社会人口学因素,(b)SF-36 量表和(c)家庭感知社会支持量表收集数据。
患者总体生活质量得分为 37.08±17.03,家庭感知社会支持量表平均得分为 11.21±7.12。总体生活质量的平均得分因年龄、性别、教育程度、职业、居住地、合并症、受影响的大脑区域、疾病持续时间和照顾者的教育程度而异。
这些结果表明脑卒中患者的平均生活质量评分较低。家庭感知社会支持量表评分与功能状态、幸福感、总体健康感知和总体生活质量等生活质量的各个方面呈正相关。
