Predictors for Returning to Paid Work after Transient Ischemic Attack and Minor Ischemic Stroke

Abstract: This study aims to determine which factors within the first week after a first-ever transient ischemic attack (TIA) or minor ischemic stroke (MIS) are associated with stroke survivors’ ability to return to either partial or full time paid external work (RTpW). In this single-center prospective cohort study, we recruited 88 patients with first-ever TIA or MIS (NIHSS ≤ 5). Bivariate analyses were conducted between patients that did (RTpW) or did not return to paid work (noRTpW) within 7 days after stroke onset a… Show more

“…Aphasia is linked to poor functional communication outcomes [7,10], little opportunity of return to work [11,12] and reduced activities of daily living (ADL) [6,13]. A high incidence of depression is also reported, with estimates ranging between 62 and 70% and higher, for PWA compared to stroke survivors without aphasia [14].…”
