“…Considering participant characteristics, the profile was similar to that of other investigations conducted in Brazil [21][22][23] , in which the occurrence of stroke was more frequent among individuals over 60 years of age 21,22 and with a slight predominance of women 23 . According to Cavalcante et al 23 , the predominance of women affected by stroke may have been related Cronbach's α SF-36 0.79 to age, because nationally women live longer than men.…”

“…According to Lima et al 21 , generic instruments may underestimate the impact of stroke, since they are less sensitive to the effects of specific health conditions. Therefore, there is not a single instrument capable of assessing all health situations and the choice of an instrument should be associated with the objectives of the study, language accessibility, and cultural context 9 .…”

“…(8) The SS-QOL is a specific instrument to assess health-related quality of life among people who suffered a stroke, which was culturally validated and adapted to Brazil. (9,10) It lists 49 items in 12 domains and its scoring goes from 49 to 245 points. Answers vary from 1 to 5 points; higher figures indicate better health-related quality of life.…”

Objective: To assess health-related quality of life after stroke and associate this event with the characteristics of people who suffered a stroke. Methods: Cross-sectional study conducted at a rehabilitation center for stroke survivors with 104 patients. The Mini-mental state examination (MMSE); an instrument for collection of sociodemographic, economic, clinical, and family related information; and the Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale were applied. Results: Of the 104 people investigated, 77 did not have cognitive deficit and answered the instruments. Their mean at the MMSE was 24.9 (±4.3). 51.9% were men and their mean age was 57.3 (±17.2) years. Most of them were married (48.1%) and had eight or more years of schooling (50.7%). Their health-related quality of life was affected (146.8±36.3), mainly in the social and family relations domains. Conclusion: An impairment in the health-related quality of life and negative consequences of the stroke were observed, together with dyslipidemia, left-side hemiplegia, and speech difficulty. ResumoObjetivo: Avaliar a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde de pessoas após acidente vascular cerebral e associar esse evento às características desses indivíduos. Métodos: Estudo transversal realizado em centro de reabilitação com pessoas sobreviventes de acidente vascular cerebral com 104 pacientes. Foram aplicados Miniexame do Estado Mental; instrumento para coleta de informações sociodemográficas, econômicas, do arranjo familiar e clínicas; e Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale. Resultados: Das 104 pessoas investigadas, 77 não apresentaram défice cognitivo e responderam aos instrumentos. A média no Miniexame do Estado Mental foi 24,9 (±4,3); 51,9% eram homens, a média da idade foi 57,3(±17,2) anos, a maioria era casada (48,1%), com 8 anos ou mais de estudo (50,7%). A qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde foi afetada (146,8±36,3), principalmente nos domínios relações sociais e familiares. Conclusão: Evidenciaram-se comprometimento da qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde e consequências negativas da doença, associadas à escolaridade, dislipidemia, hemiplegia esquerda e dificuldade de fala.

“…The adaptation of the Brazilian version of Stroke-Specific Quality of Life (SS-QOL), translated as Escala de Qualidade de Vida Específica para Acidente Vascular Encefálico (EQVE-AVE), was used as a specific measure of the quality of life 21 . The measurement properties of the Brazilian version of the SS-QOL were assessed by Lima et al 21 , who concluded that the instrument was adequate and clinically useful for the population evaluated.…”

| Background: According to the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), the participation component is considered to be the most complex component characterized in existing instruments that assess quality of life related to health (HRQoL). Questionnaires such as the Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) and the Stroke-Specific Quality of Life (SS-QOL) are currently used to evaluate the participation of individuals in life activities after stroke. However, because participation and HRQoL are different constructs, it is unclear whether these instruments are best suited to this evaluation. Objective: To investigate whether the NHP and SS-QOL are suitable instruments for assessing the participation component of ICF. Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted in which a sample of 35 individuals completed the SS-QOL and NHP. The study correlated the total score on the questionnaires with the scores on items that evaluate the participation component of the ICF. Both analyses used the Spearman correlation coefficient (r). Results: There was a statistically significant, positive and strong correlation between total score on the SS-QOL and NHP and the score on specific components related to participation (r=0.8, p=0.001 and r=0.9, p=0.001, respectively). Conclusions: Both the NHP and the SS-QOL show strong correlations between the total score and the score on items that assess the participation categories of the ICF. However, the SS-QOL questionnaire appeared to be the most complete for this assessment because it evaluates more distinct domains and contains the largest number of items related to participation.
