Background: Younger stroke patients (i.e., typically those between 18 and 65 years of age) experience fewer stokes than older patients. However, younger stroke survivors are more likely to live longer with disability, have dependants, and be engaged in full- or part-time employment. Aphasia post stroke occurs in 10% of younger survivors, and can significantly impact the ability to resume previous activities of daily living. Unfortunately traditional rehabilitation often does not account for language impairments that impact vocational status. Aims: This review reports the rate of successful return to work (RTW) for younger stroke survivors with aphasia. Aphasia is consistently regarded as a barrier to an individual's ability to RTW post stroke. However, the degree to which working-age stroke survivors with aphasia successfully RTW remains unknown. In addition, conflicting evidence has been found as to the predictive nature of communication impairments on RTW. Main Contribution: The primary outcome in which we were interested was the degree to which younger survivors with aphasia return to work. Secondary outcomes were the type of assessment used, the definition of work, and the age of the study sample. Nine studies were identified (aphasia N?=?415, total N?=?1612). The average rate of successful RTW for young survivors with aphasia was 28.4% compared to 44.7% for all young stroke survivors. Conclusions: Younger survivors with aphasia were less likely to RTW post stroke than those without aphasia. Strategies to reduce this disparity, such as specialised vocational rehabilitation, should be made available to this population. 相似文献

A large proportion of stroke patients are unable to return to work (RTW), although figures vary greatly. A total of 121 mild-to-moderate stroke patients, who had a paid job at the time of their stroke were included (a) to quantify RTW and work satisfaction one-year post-stroke (using the Utrecht Scale for Evaluation of Rehabilitation-Participation) and (b) to determine factors predicting RTW post-stroke, based on stroke-related, personal and neuropsychological variables. Half of the patients were not in work (28%) or were working less (22%) than pre-stroke. Ninety percent of those in fulltime employment post-stroke were satisfied with their occupational situation, against 36% of the unemployed participants. In regards to factors predicting RTW, global cognitive functioning (r?=?.19, Montreal Cognitive Assessment) and depressive symptoms (r?=??.16, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale) at two months post-stroke onset were associated with return to work within one year. Only global cognitive functioning was an independent predictor of RTW (11.3% variance, p?=?.013). Although the explained variance was not that high, neuropsychological factors probably play a pivotal role in returning to work and should be taken into account during rehabilitation after mild and moderate stroke. 相似文献

The relationships between a return to work (RTW) 6 months after a myocardial infarction and selected personality traits, emotional reactions, health knowledge and beliefs, expectations and global health perceptions have been examined in a prospective study of 249 patients below 67 yr of age. Patients' in-hospital expectations of their future work capacity proved to be a strong predictor for RTW. In addition, level of anxiety and depression during hospitalization and level of cardiac lifestyle knowledge were independently associated with RTW. These effects could not be explained by demographic, work-related, or medical factors. It is concluded that patients' early illness perceptions and affective reactions influence later work resumption. Outcome-specific expectancy measures may be the most effective methods for early identification of patients needing rehabilitation efforts after an acute somatic disease. 相似文献

Impaired deficit awareness is common following traumatic brain injury (TBI) and is a major obstacle to rehabilitation. We have previously confirmed the presence of impaired error awareness in TBI using a highly discriminating go/no-go procedure. In the present study, we extend this work to try to identify more closely the nature of the error awareness deficit using measures of electrodermal activity (EDA). Sixteen participants with TBI and sixteen age-, sex-, and education-matched controls performed the Sustained Attention to Response Task (SART), while EDA was recorded. TBI detected significantly fewer errors compared to controls. EDA was significantly attenuated for TBI participants even to errors of which they were aware; error detection rates and EDA amplitude were also correlated. These findings suggest that poor insight following TBI may result, in part, from impaired error processing abilities. 相似文献

Sleep disturbances after a traumatic brain injury (TBI) have received very little scientific attention despite the fact that several studies indicate that they may occur in 30% to 70% of patients. For individuals with TBI, problems falling asleep or maintaining sleep can exacerbate other symptoms such as pain, cognitive deficits, fatigue, or irritability. Sleep disturbances can thus compromise the rehabilitation process and the ability to return to work. This article reviews the evidence on the epidemiology, etiology, and treatment of insomnia in the context of TBI and proposes areas for future research. Prevalence estimates of insomnia complaints in TBI patients are summarized. Potential etiological factors (i.e., lesions to the nervous system, anxiety) and possible consequences of insomnia (i.e., fatigue, cognitive problems) in the context of TBI are discussed. Finally, pharmacological and psychological treatments previously shown effective to treat insomnia in healthy individuals are discussed as valuable treatment options for TBI patients. Increased knowledge about the high prevalence, diagnosis, and potential etiological factors of insomnia following TBI may promote a better identification, evaluation, and treatment of sleeping difficulties in this population. 相似文献

ABSTRACTThe current study explores factors predicting return to work in a sample of patients with neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders who have attended a prevocational readiness and social skills training programme many years after trauma. Participants were community-dwelling adults with long-term disabilities (N?=?67). Results of univariate analyses followed by multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that both pre-injury (prior) and post-injury (current) factors influenced the likelihood of employment in our sample: prior employment, current employment readiness, current cognitive competence (particularly memory and executive functioning) and emotional adjustment. Our findings demonstrate that both pre-trauma and current factors interact in predicting return to work not only for individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI), but also for a broader group of patients with long-term disabilities due to a variety of neurological and neuropsychiatric conditions. Thus, our findings provide preliminary support for ongoing long-term management of individuals with long-term disabilities and warrant close attention of future investigators to potential benefits of cognitive remediation, psychotherapy and vocational rehabilitation in terms of maintenance of initial gains and increased probability of return to work many years after trauma. 相似文献

This paper questions the DSM IV TR criteria for Dementia Due to Head Trauma (DDHT). We studied 20 consecutive traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients and checked them for this criteria. We found the diagnosis criteria to be oversensitive and lacking in specificity, consequently raising the possibility for all subjects who have sustained severe TBI to be diagnosed with dementia. A careful analysis of data and literature showed that nearly half of these patients were able to return to work after undergoing an intensive and holistic rehabilitation program, indicating a reversal of the "dementia". Severe head injury produces a set of multiple cognitive deficits that shouldn't be considered dementia. The term "Severe Neurocognitive Disorder" is suggested for use instead of DDHT for the cognitive deterioration of severe TBI patients. 相似文献

In recent years we have witnessed the growing recognition of the centrality of work involvement in the successful rehabilitation of brain injured patients. Evidence from studies conducted at Loewenstein Rehabilitation Hospital (LRH) and from other studies, points to a strong and consistent positive association between employment and social integration, leisure activities, enhanced self-esteem, and perceived quality of life. Patients surviving severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) often suffer from residual impairments in motor control, communication skills, cognition, and social behaviour. These distinctly hamper their capability to return to work and to continue working for an extended period of time. Comprehensive and integrated rehabilitation programmes, such as those employed in LRH, were proven to be effective in returning patients to stable employment. This was demonstrated in the results of our recent follow-up study of 334 severe TBI patients, which indicated that 55.7% were gainfully employed 8-13 years post-discharge from LRH. 相似文献

For evaluating the patterns of brain activation in sensorimotor areas following motor rehabilitation, seven male patients
diagnosed with TBI underwent an fMRI study before and after being subjected to motor rehabilitation. Six patients showed a
reduction in the BOLD signal of their motor cortical areas during the second fMRI evaluation. A decrease in cerebellum activation
was also observed in two patients. Newly activated areas, were observed in four patients after treatment. In addition, an
increase in the activation of the supplementary motor area (SMA) following rehabilitation was observed in only one test subject.
The findings show that motor rehabilitation in TBI patients produces a decrease in the BOLD signal for the sensorimotor areas
that were activated prior to treatment. In addition, we observed the recruitment of different brain areas to compensate for
functional loss due to TBI in line with the cortical reorganisation mechanism. 相似文献

AbstractBackground:The percentage of working age people with mild stroke has risen. Evidence indicates that even mild stroke impact cognition, executive functioning, and daily functioning, consequently affecting participation, quality of life (QoL) and return to work (RTW).Objectives:(1) Compare cognition, participation and QoL between people 3 months post-mild stroke who RTW and those who did not; and (2) To determine the correlates of these variables to RTW of participants 3 months post-stroke.Methods:We visited at home 163 stroke survivors (117 men, 46 women) 3 months post-mild stroke ranging from 50 to 89 years. Participants who returned to work (n?=?114) and those who did not (n?=?49). Data collection at home included measures for cognitive status (MoCA), executive functions (EFPT, DEX), depression (GDS), participation (RNL), and QoL (SIS recovery).Results:Significant differences were found between RTW participants and those who did not RTW in measures of cognition, depression, participation and QoL (t?=?2.36 to ??5.62, P?<?0.022–0.001). No difference was found on age or gender. Stepwise regression showed that significant correlates of RTW were participation (RNL), executive functions (EFPT), and QoL (SIS recovery).Conclusions:To enable RTW after mild stroke, participation, executive functions and QoL must be considered in planning interventions. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate perceived identity change in adults with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and explore associations between identity change, grief, depression, self-esteem and self-awareness. The participants were 29 adults with TBI who were being followed up by a community brain injury rehabilitation service. Participants were longer post-injury than those more commonly studied. Time since injury ranged from 2.25 to 40 years (mean?=?11.17 years, SD?=?11.4 years). Participants completed a battery of questionnaires. Significant others and clinicians completed a parallel version of one of these measures. Questionnaires included the Head Injury Semantic Differential Scale (HISDS-III), Brain Injury Grief Inventory (BIGI), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale – Depression, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) and the Awareness Questionnaire (Self/Significant other/Clinician versions). The main findings were that participants reported significant changes in self-concept with current self being viewed negatively in comparison to pre-injury self. Perceived identity change was positively associated with depression and grief and negatively associated with self-esteem and awareness. Awareness was negatively associated with self-esteem and positively associated with depression. These findings were consistent with previous research, revealing changes in identity following TBI. Further research is needed to increase our understanding of the psychological factors involved in emotional adjustment after TBI and to inform brain injury rehabilitation interventions, including psychotherapy approaches. 相似文献

Impaired awareness of errors is common following traumatic brain injury (TBI) and can be a barrier to successful rehabilitation. The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate a computer-based intervention programme aimed at improving error awareness in individuals with TBI. A further aim was to explore its effects on metacognitive awareness and variability of performance. Participants were 11 individuals with TBI and impaired error awareness who performed a sustained attention task twice-weekly for four weeks. The intervention consisted of audio-visual feedback-on-errors during the sustained attention task. Six participants received audio-visual feedback-on-error, five did not receive feedback. Emergent and metacognitive awareness were measured pre- and post-intervention. Between-groups comparisons of emergent awareness from pre- to post-intervention showed that audio-visual feedback-on-error improved emergent awareness compared to no feedback-on-error. Some changes in metacognitive awareness of executive behaviours as a result of feedback were observed. Audio-visual feedback-on-error improved emergent awareness in individuals with TBI following a four-week/eight-session intervention. This improvement was not observed in the no-feedback group. This pilot intervention is not a stand-alone treatment but it has potential to be usefully incorporated into cognitive or clinical rehabilitation programmes to improve emergent awareness. 相似文献

Objectives
A substantial proportion of individuals with stroke are of working age. After stroke, it is important to return to work (RTW), both for the individual's satisfaction with life and economically for society. The current comprehensive, long-term study aimed at investigating in what time period the RTW continues after stroke and what factors could predict RTW.Materials and methods
All individuals registered in the registry Riksstroke with stroke in Sweden at ages 18-58 years during 2011 were eligible for participation. RTW was based on sickness absence data from the Social Insurance Agency covering 1 year prestroke to 5 years post-stroke. Time to RTW was analyzed with Kaplan-Meier curves. Potential predictors of RTW were analyzed with Cox regression and logistic regression.Results
For RTW analyses, 1695 participants were included. Almost 50% RTW within 3 months, 70% within 1 year, and 80% within 2 years post-stroke. However, the RTW continued for several years, with a total of 85% RTW. Predictors of favorable time to RTW were male sex, ischemic stroke, and long university education compared with primary school education. Predictors of unfavorable times to RTW were higher stroke severity, defined by the level of consciousness, and older ages. Participants with self-expectations of RTW 1 year post-stroke had higher odds of RTW within 5 years.Conclusions
The RTW continues for a longer time after stroke than previously known. Both self-expectations and demographical, socioeconomic, stroke-related factors were important predictors of RTW. This knowledge could assist healthcare professionals to individualize the rehabilitation post-stroke.17.
Although narrative storytelling has been found to assist identity construction, there is little direct research regarding its application in rehabilitation following traumatic brain injury (TBI). The aim of this review was to identify published evidence on the use of personal narrative approaches in rehabilitation following TBI and to synthesise the findings across this literature. A systematic search of four databases was conducted in December 2016. No limit was set on the start date of the search. Personal narrative approaches were defined as direct client participation in sharing personal stories using written, spoken or visual methods. The search retrieved 12 qualitative research articles on the use of personal narrative approaches in TBI rehabilitation. Thematic synthesis of the narrative data and authors’ reported findings of the 12 articles yielded an overall theme of building a strengths-based identity and four sub-themes: 1) expressing and communicating to others; 2) feeling validated by the act of someone listening; 3) reflecting and learning about oneself; and 4) being productive. The findings of this review support the use of personal narrative approaches in addressing loss of identity following TBI. Healthcare professionals and the community are encouraged to seek opportunities for survivors of TBI to share their stories. 相似文献

Knowledge about factors influencing return to work (RTW) after depression-related absence is highly relevant, but the evidence is scattered. We performed a systematic search of PubMed and Embase databases up to February 1, 2016 to retrieve cohort studies on the association between various predictive factors and return to work among employees with depression for review and meta-analysis. We also analyzed unpublished data from the Finnish Public Sector study. Most-adjusted estimates were pooled using fixed effects meta-analysis. Eleven published studies fulfilled the eligibility criteria, representing 22 358 person-observations from five different countries. With the additional unpublished data from the 14 101 person-observations from the Finnish Public Sector study, the total number of person-observations was 36 459. The pooled estimates were derived from 2 to 5 studies, with the number of observations ranging from 260 to 26 348. Older age (pooled relative risk [RR] 0.95; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.84–0.87), somatic comorbidity (RR = 0.80, 95% CI 0.77–0.83), psychiatric comorbidity (RR = 0.86, 95% CI 0.83–0.88) and more severe depression (RR = 0.96, 95% CI 0.94–0.98) were associated with a lower rate of return to work, and personality trait conscientiousness with higher (RR = 1.06, 95% CI 1.02–1.10) return to work. While older age and clinical factors predicted slower return, significant heterogeneity was observed between the studies. There is a dearth of observational studies on the predictors of RTW after depression. Future research should pay attention to quality aspects and particularly focus on the role of workplace and labor market factors as well as individual and clinical characteristics on RTW. 相似文献
