The influences of client-centered therapy on the level of performance, the level of satisfaction of activity of daily living, and the quality of life of the chronic stroke patients

Abstract

[Purpose] The purpose of this research is to take a look at the influences of client-centered therapy on the level of everyday life performance, the level of satisfaction, and the quality of life of the chronic stroke patients. [Subjects and Methods] This research used client-centered therapy with two chronic stroke and hemiplegia patients as subjects. The therapy was carried out once a day, five times a week, for thirty minutes at a time for four weeks. Also, five kinds of training were included in the medical treatment programs which were organized after the initial Canadian occupational performance measure (COPM) evaluations. Evaluations were carried out before and after the mediation. Changes in the level of everyday life performance level of satisfaction were measured using the COPM, and changes in quality of life were measured using the Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL). [Results] After the application of medical treatment, both subjects showed positive changes in terms of the level of everyday life performance, level of satisfaction, and quality of life. [Conclusion] Both subjects demonstrated improvements in all aspects of both outcome measurements which implied that a short client-centered therapy program could help chronic stroke patients improve some aspects of their life.

Role of Physical Therapy on Quality of Life and Level of Satisfaction among Patients with Stroke

“…Both participants showed significant changes and improvement in QoL, performance, and satisfaction level. 18 In current study, 126 patients were receiving routine physical therapy treatment and survey was done to gather information and they also showed improved QoL. Population who do not have rehabilitation treatments have low level of energy and their social life is more effected by the stroke then the patients who have proper rehabilitation sessions.…”

Effect of client‐centred therapy on the coping strategies of sexually harassed students in tertiary institutions in Taraba State, Nigeria

“…In organisations, secondary and tertiary institutions around the world, numerous researchers have undertaken studies on CCT on educational, vocational and personal–social concerns. A number of them (Bondestam & Lundqvist, 2020; Elliott, 2016; Hashemi Pour & Bahreinian, 2019; Jones, 2020; Park, 2018; Saad et al, 2014) found CCT to be very effective. This study assumes that CCT will, to some extent, address SH problems in tertiary institutions in Taraba State, Nigeria.…”
