“…In addition, estimated annual costs in Canada related to chronic stroke were $2.8 billion, including direct medical costs, indirect costs of care, and absenteeism (Mittmann et al, 2012). The majority of individuals with chronic stroke possess some residual physical, cognitive, psychosocial, and/or behavioural challenges (DePaul, Moreland, & deHueck, 2013). These challenges affect participation in everyday life activities.…”

Background. Stroke has long-term consequences for functional performance of daily activities. Evaluating client-perceived occupational performance provides insight for designing stroke-specific programs supporting home and community participation. Purpose. This study describes the personal characteristics and self-perceived occupational performance in community-dwelling adults with stroke. Method. A retrospective chart review was undertaken of 25 stroke survivors who sought services at a community-based centre. The outcome measures were the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) to evaluate self-perceived occupational performance and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) to screen for cognitive impairment. The analysis used descriptive statistics. Findings. Mean participant age was 64 years, and most participants were Caucasian males (72%). The mean cognitive function score was 22.1 on MoCA, and the mean COPM performance and satisfaction subscores were 4.1 and 3.9, respectively. The top three challenging daily activities were driving, seeking employment, and functional mobility. Implications. Stroke-specific community programs should emphasize the diverse performance concerns important to stroke survivors. Abré gé Description. Les accidents vasculaires cérébraux (AVC) ont des conséquences à long terme sur le rendement occupationnel d'une personne lors de la réalisation de ses activités de la vie quotidienne (AVQ). L'examen de la perception du client face à son rendement occupationnel offre des pistes pour concevoir des programmes qui s'adressent spécifiquement aux personnes ayant subi un AVC et qui favorisent leur participation à domicile et dans la collectivité. But. Cette étude décrit les caractéristiques personnelles d'adultes ayant subi un AVC et vivant dans la collectivité, de même que leur perception face à leur rendement occupationnel. Mé thodologie. Un examen rétrospectif des dossiers de 25 personnes ayant survécu à un AVC et ayant fait une demande de services auprès d'un centre communautaire a été effectué. Les mesures des résultats utilisées étaient la Mesure canadienne du rendement occupationnel (MCRO), pour évaluer l'autoperception du rendement occupationnel, et le Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), pour dépister les déficits cognitifs. L'analyse a été effectuée à l'aide de statistiques descriptives. Ré sultats. L'âge moyen des participants était de 64 ans et la plupart des participants étaient des hommes de race blanche (72%). Le score moyen obtenu au MoCA pour les fonctions cognitives était de 22,1 et les scores secondaires moyens de la MCRO pour le rendement et la satisfaction étaient respectivement de 4,1 et de 3,9. La conduite automobile, la recherche d'emploi et la mobilité fonctionnelle étaient les trois principales AVQ considérées comme étant difficiles. Consé quences. Les programmes communautaires s'adressant spécifiquement aux personnes ayant subi un AVC devraient mettre l'accent sur les diverses préoccupations en matière de rendement qui sont importantes pour ces personnes.

“…We remind that most patients presented a stroke diagnosis. Depaul, Moreland and Dehueck [19], reinforce the idea that this type of population has great needs related to mobility. However, keeping in mind the duration of the intervention plan, a significant number of RN diagnoses were solved in T2.…”

Mobility Deficit – Rehabilitate, An Opportunity for Functionality

There are many pathological conditions that cause mobility deficits and that ultimately influence someone's autonomy. To overcome these difficulties implies the patient's involvement and professional action, namely from a rehabilitation nurse, whose target is to capacitate the patient. The person can be capacitated and reach quality of life through organized and systematic rehabilitation programs, which can result in health gains. Aims: to evaluate patients with mobility deficits functional status; to implement a Rehabilitation Nursing intervention plan; to monitor health gains through mobility deficits rehabilitation; Method: Cross-sectional study, action research approximation. Nonprobability sampling, 9 patients admitted at an Intensive Care Unit and at a Stroke Unit who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The intervention plan included two moments of formal evaluation: the initial (T1) and the final (T2) that relied on specific instruments. Results: improvement and solving of rehabilitation nursing diagnoses, increased balance and better transferring ability. Data suggest that the implementation of an intervention plan decreased the level of dependence. Conclusion: Early intervention and the implementation of a nursing rehabilitation intervention plan results in health gains (direct or indirect), decreases the risk of developing Pressure Ulcers (PU) and the risk of developing a situation of immobility that affects patients' autonomy and quality of life.

“…ADL performance is regarded as primary cause of falls among post-stroke patients [22]. One the other hand, testing of AT devices influence the functional outcomes of the rehabilitation is still challenging both due to variety of AT equipment, and complexity of the possible therapeutic effect in particular patient after stroke [23,24,25]. Current result are incomplete or not consistent.…”

S u m m a r y B a c k g r o u n d .Assistive technology (AT) is regarded as one of the most important factors influencing functional recovery and independence in patients after stroke. There is still a need for research on predictors and early identification of AT requirements in order to shape and maximize its positive influence on the recovery process.O b j e c t i v e . To identify and evaluate relationship between selected factors (age, sex, time after cerebrovascular accident) and AT use. R e s u l t s . Among 140 patients involved in the study, the use of AT was as follows: the most common AT equipment were wheelchairs (used by 40.81% of patients), canes (15.71%) and husks (15%). Up to 5 % patients used more than one AT device. Sex, age, time after cerebrovascular accident, and post-stroke complications were important factors influencing AT use in stroke-survivors.C o n c l u s i o n s . Study outcomes confirm important clinical information extending existing studies, especially cooccurrence of AT devices use. S t r e s z c z e n i e W p r o w a d z e n i e . Technologia wspomagająca jest uważana za jeden z najważniejszych czynników wpływa-jących na funkcjonalny powrót do zdrowia i samodzielność pacjentów po udarze. Wciąż jednak potrzebne są badania w zakresie czynników predykcyjnych i wczesnej identyfikacji potrzeb w zakresie technologii wspomagającej, aby kształtować i maksymalizować pozytywny wpływ tej grupy rozwiązań technicznych na proces powrotu do zdrowia. C e l . Identyfikacja i ocena związków pomiędzy wybranymi czynnikami (wiekiem, płcią, czasem po udarze) a wykorzystaniem technologii wspomagającej. W y n i k i . Pośród 140 pacjentów biorących udział w badaniu najczęściej spotykanymi przedmiotem należącymi do technologii wspomagającej były wózki dla osób niepełnosprawnych (używane przez 40,81% badanych), laski (15,71%) i łuski (15%). Do 5% pacjentów wykorzystywało więcej niż jeden przedmiot należący do technologii wspomagających. Płeć, wiek, czas od udaru oraz zmiany wtórne po udarze stanowiły istotne czynniki wpływające na wykorzystanie technologii wspomagającej u pacjentów po udarze.W n i o s k i . Badanie potwierdza ważne klinicznie dane rozszerzając dotychczasowe badania, szczególnie w obszarze jednoczesnego wykorzystywania różnych przedmiotów należących do technologii wspomagającej.
