中風一年後功能恢復的程度與有關因素之關係
The Relationship between Functional Recovery One Year after a Stroke, and Related Factors
摘要
This study examines the factors affecting functional performance of 40 hemiplegic subjects in their homes following discharge from the hospital. All subjects suffered a cerebral vascular accident at least one year prior to this research period. Barthel Index was used to assess subjects¡¦ self-reported functional level in activities of daily living (ADL). A backward elimination of stepwise regression analysis was performed to ascertain the predictive value of the variables in determining functional performance one year after the onset of a stroke. These variables are factors related to the the initial onset and those affecting the patient’s functional status at home. The results revealed that subjects who had a shorter length of stay in the hospital, scored a higher on the Barthel Index (p ＜ 0.05). It also demonstrated that subjects who were more satisfied with their current subjective health status, had a higher Barthel Index score.
