ABSTRACT
Foundation: Cerebrovascular diseases impact on
quality of life. Factors associated to a greater
impairment vary from one study to another.
Objective: To describe the factors that affect
Quality of life in stroke survivors at one year.
Methods: It is a longitudinal descriptive study of a
cohort of 110 stroke survivors with outpatient
follow-up for one year after the initial evaluation.
Quality of life was assessed using the Quality of Life
Scale for Stroke.
Results: Women predominated with 52.3%. The
degree of neurological involvement was moderate to
severe in more than two thirds of patients and at a
year follow up, it improved (slight to moderate), with
average score of 3.5 ± 3.8. More than one third
presented high burden of depressive symptoms for
an average score of 7.8 ± 3.6, which increased to
56% per year. Factors associated with the
impairment of quality of life were: worse
neurological status (OR: 2.63, CI: 1.48, 2.82), major
depressive symptoms (OR: 1.94, CI: 1 17; 1.89) and
older (OR: 1.14, CI: 1.04, 1.25).
Conclusion: Quality of life was determined by the
degree of neurological impairment, cognitive status,
older age and the presence of depressive symptoms.
The only factors associated with quality of life which
were modified at a year of follow-up were the
neurological involvement and the presence of
depressive symptoms.
