We estimated predictors of case-fatality and functional outcome using Poisson regression and generalized estimating equations using log-binomial models respectively at multiple timepoints. Results: Case-fatality rate was 33% at 1 month, 43% at 1 year, and 47% at 5 years. Poor functional outcome was present in 27% of survivors at 1 month and 15% at 1 year. In multivariable analysis, predictors of death at 1-month were age (per decade increase MRR 1.14 [1.07-1.22]) and SAH severity (MRR 1.87 [1.50-2.33]); at 1 year were age (MRR 1.53 [1.34-1.56]), current smoking (MRR 1.82 [1.20-2.72]) and SAH severity (MRR 3.00 [2.06-4.33]) and; at 5 years were age (MRR 1.63 [1.45-1.84]), current smoking (MRR 2.29 [1.54-3.46]) and severity of SAH (MRR 2.10 [1.44-3.05]). Predictors of poor functional outcome at 1 month were age (per decade increase RR 1.32 [1.11-1.56]) and SAH severity (RR 1.85 [1.06-3.23]), and SAH severity (RR 7.09 [3.17-15.85]) at 1 year. Conclusion: Although age is a non-modifiable risk factor for poor outcomes after SAH, however, severity of SAH and smoking are potential targets to improve the outcomes.]]> Wed 13 Mar 2024 08:50:47 AEDT ]]> Self-reported exercise prevalence and determinants in the long term after stroke: the North East Melbourne Stroke Incidence Study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34073 Wed 09 Mar 2022 16:04:01 AEDT ]]> "Connecting patients and therapists remotely using technology is feasible and facilitates exercise adherence after stroke" https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:37899 Thu 17 Jun 2021 15:24:15 AEST ]]> Identifying factors associated with sedentary time after stroke.

Regression models explained 11-19% of the variance in total sedentary time and time in prolonged sedentary bouts. Conclusion: We found that variability in sedentary time of people with stroke was largely unaccounted for by demographic and stroke-related variables. Behavioral and environmental factors are likely to play an important role in sedentary behavior after stroke. Further work is required to develop and test effective interventions to address sedentary behavior after stroke.]]> Thu 13 Jan 2022 10:29:49 AEDT ]]> Factors influencing sedentary time and physical activity early after stroke: a qualitative study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43639 Mon 26 Sep 2022 16:36:52 AEST ]]> Sedentary time and activity behaviors after stroke rehabilitation: changes in the first 3 months home https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46393 p = .01), 21 minutes more walking (95%CI 2,22 p = .02) and completed 1112 additional steps/day (95%CI 268,1956 p = .01), compared to the first week home. No factors predicted change in activity. At 3 months, greater depression (β 22 mins (95%CI 8,36) p = .004) and slower gait speed (β − 43 mins 95%CI −59,-27 p ≤ 0.001) were associated with more sedentary time and less walking activity, respectively. Conclusions: Sedentary time reduced and walking activity increased between discharge home and 3 months later. Interventions targeting mood and physical function may warrant testing to reduce sedentary behavior 3 months following discharge.]]> Mon 21 Nov 2022 14:45:55 AEDT ]]> An Exploration of sedentary behavior patterns in community-dwelling people with stroke: a cluster-based analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40264 Mon 08 Aug 2022 13:40:25 AEST ]]> Sedentary time and physical activity patterns of stroke survivors during the inpatient rehabilitation week https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46860 n = 29) wore an activity monitor continuously during the final 7-days of inpatient rehabilitation. Linear mixed models (adjusted for waking hours) were performed with activity (sedentary, steps per day, walking time) as the dependent variable, and day type (weekday or weekend) as the independent variable. Patterns of upright time during the 24-h period were determined by averaging daily activity in 60-min intervals and generating a heat map of activity levels as a function of time. Participant mean age was 69 (SD 13) years (52% male) and mean National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score was 7.0 (SD, 5.5). There was no significant difference in sedentary time between weekdays and weekends. At the weekend, participants spent 8.4 min less time walking (95% CI, -12.1 to -4.6) taking 624 fewer steps/day (95% CI, -951 to -296) than during the week. Activity patterns showed greatest upright time in the morning during the week. Afternoon and evening activities were low on all days. Sedentary time did not change across the 7-day rehabilitation week, but less walking activity occurred on the weekend. There are opportunities for stroke survivors to increase physical activity during afternoons and evenings and on weekend mornings during rehabilitation.]]> Mon 05 Dec 2022 08:23:39 AEDT ]]> Activity monitors for increasing physical activity in adult stroke survivors (review) https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35090 Fri 30 Aug 2019 17:12:47 AEST ]]> Go Home, Sit Less: The Impact of Home Versus Hospital Rehabilitation Environment on Activity Levels of Stroke Survivors https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:45704 Fri 04 Nov 2022 08:49:08 AEDT ]]>
