Aim and background: One of the most important psychological disorders that arise after a stroke for people with subsequent depression, which leads to reduced quality of life, optimal rehabilitation failure, loss of cognitive tasks and decrease the recovery process.In this study communication patterns of depression with cognitive, motor and function deficites in people with chronic stroke has been studied.Methods and materials: it is a pilot study of cross-sectional study, 40 patients with chronic stroke (more than 6 months) selected sampling method. depression (Beck Depression Inventory), cognition (attention test TMT-A & B and Wechsler memory), motor (Motorcity index), basic activities of daily living (Barthel scale) and instrumental activities of daily living (Lawton scale) were evaluated.Results: The results of the study revealed a significant positive correlation between post stroke depression with verbal memory(r=./386 ،P<./05), attention(r=./549 ،P<./05), motor status(r=./550 ،P<./05) and independence in activities of daily living(r=./653 ،P<./05)Conclusion: According to the findings, the study of factors affecting  post stroke depression(PSD) clinical and practical aspects are necessary. Cognitive rehabilitation programs with motor rehabilitation can reduce depression in patients with stroke in the direction of independence in activities of daily living and greater participation in society .

Aim and background: One of the most important psychological disorders after stroke is depression, which leads to reduced quality of life, optimal rehabilitation failure, loss of cognitive tasks and decrease in the recovery process. In this research, relation between patterns of depression and cognitive, motor and function deficits in people with chronic stroke was studied. Methods and materials: In a pilot cross-sectional study, 40 patients with chronic stroke (more than 6 months) were enrolled. Depression (Beck Depression Inventory), cognition (attention test TMT-A & B and Wechsler memory), motor (Motorcity index), basic activities of daily living (Barthel scale) and instrumental activities of daily living (Lawton scale) were evaluated. Results: The results of the study revealed a significant positive correlation between post stroke depression and verbal memory (r=0.440،P<.05), attention (r=0.615،P<.05), motor function(r-0.368،P<.05), independence in basic activities of daily living (r=0.781،P<.05) and instrumental activities of daily living (r=0.741, P<.05). Conclusion: According to the findings, further studies of factors affecting post stroke depression (PSD) clinical and practical aspects are necessary. Cognitive rehabilitation programs with motor rehabilitation can decrease depression and gain independence in activities of daily living and more participation in society activities.

Background: Despite the availability of community based outpatient rehabilitation programs in the U.S., few use standardized measure sets and assessments, and outcomes studies are sparse. There is especially a knowledge gap regarding outcomes of participating chronic stroke patients (rehabilitation begins more than 6 months post stroke). Methods: Prospective observational study of stroke patients treated between 12/2011-1/2015 in an interdisciplinary outpatient rehabilitation program that addresses health literacy, risk factors, physical, psychosocial, cognitive, communicative and vocational issues. Patients were classified as chronic if admitted to the program >6 months and sub-acute if admitted <6 months post stroke. Results: Among 96 consecutive patients, 71 were sub-acute (72% ischemic, 28% hemorrhages) and 25 chronic (68% ischemic, 32% hemorrhages) who were admitted to the program an average 18.5 months post stroke (range 6-121 months). Chronic vs subacute stroke patients were 64% vs 59% male, with no difference in age (mean 66, range 27-90 years vs 65, range 18-90 years), but with greater stroke severity (chronic mean NIHSS score 8.32, range 2-15 vs subacute NIHSS of 5.2, range 0-16). On admission, chronic vs subacute patients were 44% vs 34% aphasic and 96% vs 86% needed assistance with activities of daily living (chronic with modified Rankin Scale [mRS] of 3=28% and 4=68% vs subacute mRS of 3=65% and 4=21%). The percent change in outcomes from baseline to program discharge for subacute and chronic stroke patients is presented in the Table. Conclusions: Although age, sex and stroke types were similar in both groups, chronic patients were more severely impaired than subacute patients but achieved greater improvement in activities of daily living, recovery, walking speed, balance, and risk factor knowledge. These findings demonstrate that outpatient rehabilitation programs can aid in stroke recovery independent of time since stroke onset.
