Abstract
Purpose To investigate the level of exercise intention and its associated factors among persons post-stroke using the Theory of Planned Behavior. Patients and Methods In this cross-sectional study, a total of 333 participants admitted to the neurology units of a tertiary care hospital in China with a confirmed diagnosis of stroke were recruited. A self-administered instrument based on the Theory of Planned Behavior was used to determine the exercise intention and its associated factors among persons post-stroke. Results The results revealed that only 128 participants had exercise intention after discharge with a prevalence of 38.4%. Multivariable linear regression analysis revealed that monthly income, living situation, subjective norms, attitude, and perceived behavioral control were significant predictors of exercise intention of persons post-stroke. Perceived behavioral control and living situation were the most relevant factors of exercise intention. Conclusion The level of exercise intention among persons post-stroke was found to be low. Perceived behavioral control and living situation were particularly important and contributed to exercise intention. Healthcare professionals' adequate guidance on exercise should be provided, with a focus on educating both patients and their family members, especially spouses, to promote exercise intention in persons post-stroke.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Despite the demonstrated efficacy of physiotherapy in palliative care programmes, there are scarce data of its real-life impact on patients' and caregivers' wellness and stress. Our aim was to assess effectiveness of a 30-day physiotherapy programme in psychological wellness and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients with advanced chronic diseases or cancer and in their caregivers' stress. METHODS Quasiexperimental before-after study applying personalised kinesitherapy, exercise with curative effects, respiratory physiotherapy, therapeutic massages and ergotherapy. Psychological wellness, HRQoL and caregiver's strain outcomes were measured. RESULTS 207 patients (60% men, with a mean age of 73.6±12 years) were included; 129 (62.3%) with advanced cancer, and the remaining 78 with advanced chronic diseases. Psychological wellness (Emotional Stress Detection Tool decreased from 12.4±3 to 11±3; p<0.0001), caregiver's strain (Caregiver Strain Index decreased from 8.5±3.2 to 7.9±3.5; p<0.0001) and HRQoL (WHO-BREF physical health domain increased from 8.3±2.6 to 9.4±2.9; p<0.0001) showed a significant improvement after the physiotherapy programme. Global satisfaction with the physiotherapy intervention was also high (Client Satisfaction Questionnaire-8 of 28.3±3.3 points). CONCLUSIONS A personalised physiotherapy programme incorporated to integral palliative care improved psychological wellness, HRQoL and caregivers' strain of patients with advanced chronic diseases and cancer.

Relationships between Self-Efficacy and Post-Stroke Activity Limitations, Locomotor Ability, Physical Activity, and Community Reintegration in Sub-Saharan Africa: A Cross-Sectional Study. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2023; 20:2286. [PMID: 36767651 PMCID: PMC9915935 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph20032286] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Revised: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Stroke self-efficacy is under-investigated in sub-Saharan Africa. In particular, studies focusing on the relationship between self-efficacy and post-stroke functional outcomes are scarce. This cross-sectional study aimed to explore the association between self-efficacy and post-stroke activity limitations, locomotor ability, physical activity, and community reintegration in Benin, a sub-Saharan African country. To achieve this purpose, a selection of stroke patients was made from the admission registers of the physiotherapy clinics (rehabilitation units) of three reference hospitals in Benin from January to April 2018. Stroke patients who were still continuing their rehabilitation sessions were informed by direct contact. Those who had already finished their sessions were informed by telephone. Sixty stroke patients of those contacted gave their consent and were recruited for this study. The sample consisted of 44 men and 16 women with a mean age of 56.7 ± 10.4 years. Activity limitations, locomotor ability, physical activity, community reintegration, and self-efficacy were self-reported using ACTIVLIM-Stroke, Abiloco-Benin, the Africa francophone version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ-AF), the Reintegration to Normal Living Index (RNLI), and a French version of the Stroke Self-efficacy Questionnaire (SSEQ-F), respectively. Spearman's rank correlation coefficients (ρ) were calculated to characterize the relationship between self-efficacy and activity limitations, locomotor ability, physical activity, and community reintegration. According to the results, self-efficacy showed a moderate correlation with physical activity (ρ = 0.65; p < 0.001) and high correlations with activity limitations (ρ = 0.81; p < 0.001), locomotor ability (ρ = 0.72; p < 0.001), and community reintegration (ρ = -0.84; p < 0.001). Thus, self-efficacy emerges as an important factor associated with the functional recovery of stroke patients in sub-Saharan Africa.

Abstract
Background Knowledge gaps exist regarding the effect of time elapsed after stroke on the effectiveness of exercise training interventions, offering incomplete guidance to clinicians. Methods and Results To determine the associations between time after stroke and 6-minute walk distance, 10-meter walk time, cardiorespiratory fitness and balance (Berg Balance Scale score [BBS]) in exercise training interventions, relevant studies in post-stroke populations were identified by systematic review. Time after stroke as continuous or dichotomized (≤3 months versus >3 months, and ≤6 months versus >6 months) variables and weighted mean differences in postintervention outcomes were examined in meta-regression analyses adjusted for study baseline mean values (pre-post comparisons) or baseline mean values and baseline control-intervention differences (controlled comparisons). Secondary models were adjusted additionally for mean age, sex, and aerobic exercise intensity, dose, and modality. We included 148 studies. Earlier exercise training initiation was associated with larger pre-post differences in mobility; studies initiated ≤3 months versus >3 months after stroke were associated with larger differences (weighted mean differences [95% confidence interval]) in 6-minute walk distance (36.3 meters; 95% CI, 14.2-58.5), comfortable 10-meter walk time (0.13 m/s; 95% CI, 0.06-0.19) and fast 10-meter walk time (0.16 m/s; 95% CI, 0.03-0.3), in fully adjusted models. Initiation ≤3 months versus >3 months was not associated with cardiorespiratory fitness but was associated with a higher but not clinically important Berg Balance Scale score difference (2.9 points; 95% CI, 0.41-5.5). In exercise training versus control studies, initiation ≤3 months was associated with a greater difference in only postintervention 6-minute walk distance (baseline-adjusted 27.3 meters; 95% CI, 6.1-48.5; fully adjusted, 24.9 meters; 95% CI, 0.82-49.1; a similar association was seen for ≤6 months versus >6 months after stroke (fully adjusted, 26.6 meters; 95% CI, 2.6-50.6). Conclusions There may be a clinically meaningful benefit to mobility outcomes when exercise is initiated within 3 months and up to 6 months after stroke.

Effectiveness of Physical Therapy Interventions in Reducing Fear of Falling Among Individuals With Neurologic Diseases: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Arch Phys Med Rehabil 2020; 102:132-154. [PMID: 32745544 DOI: 10.1016/j.apmr.2020.06.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 34] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2020] [Revised: 06/23/2020] [Accepted: 06/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To summarize the effectiveness of physical therapy interventions to reduce fear of falling (FOF) among individuals living with neurologic diseases. DATA SOURCES PubMed, Physiotherapy Evidence Database, Scopus, Web of Science, PsycINFO, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health, and SportDiscuss were searched from inception until December 2019. STUDY SELECTION Clinical trials with either the primary or secondary aim to reduce FOF among adults with neurologic diseases were selected. DATA EXTRACTION Potential articles were screened for eligibility, and data were extracted by 2 independent researchers. Risk of bias was assessed by the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool for randomized controlled trials and the National Institutes of Health Quality Assessment Tool for pre-post studies. A meta-analysis was performed among trials presenting with similar clinical characteristics. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) was used to rate the overall quality of evidence. RESULTS Sixty-one trials with 3954 participants were included in the review and 53 trials with 3524 participants in the meta-analysis. The included studies presented, in general, with a low to high risk of bias. A combination of gait and balance training was significantly more effective compared with gait training alone in reducing FOF among individuals with Parkinson disease (PD) (mean difference [MD]=11.80; 95% CI, 8.22-15.38; P<.001). Home-based exercise and leisure exercise demonstrated significant improvement in reducing FOF over usual care in multiple sclerosis (MS) (MD=15.27; 95% CI, 6.15-24.38; P=.001). No statistically significant between-groups differences were reported among individuals with stroke and spinal cord injury. The overall quality of evidence presented in this review ranges from very low to moderate according to the assessment with the GRADE approach. CONCLUSIONS Gait with lower limb training combined with balance training is effective in reducing FOF in individuals with PD. Also, home-based or leisure exercise is effective among individuals with MS. However, because of several limitations of the included studies, further research is needed to examine the effectiveness of FOF intervention among individuals with neurologic diseases.

Abstract
The problem of rehabilitation of post-stroke patients with motor deficit remains relevant with growing prevalence of disability and decreasing mortality, despite all measures aimed at stroke prevention and morbidity reduction. One of the most common consequences of stroke is gait impairment as a result of spastic paresis of the lower limb (decreased gait velocity, shortened step, excessive loading of intact limb etc.), which leads to significant maladaptation, increased risk of falls, decrease in quality of life. The article presents a detailed review of motor action in normal and pathologic conditions, analysis of neuronal structures involved into a movement act in healthy individuals and in stroke patients, current aspects of gait pathophysiology, characteristics of post-stroke gait (speed and asymmetry of gain, balance control impairment). A separate paragraph is devoted to gait recovery after stroke with analysis of existing and developing strategies of rehabilitation, aimed at the improvement of vertical posture, balance control and movement, condition, tone and functioning of skeletal muscles. Authors also analyze new research information on the efficacy of botulinum toxin preparations and programs of Guided Self-Rehabilitation Contracts (GSC), present the results of clinical trials demonstrating the efficacy of combination of these two methods.
