Background: Memory self-efficacy (MSE) is the belief about one’s mastery of memory functioning. In healthy elderly, memory complaints are related to MSE rather than to objectively measured memory capacity. MSE has scarcely been studied in patients that suffered a stroke. The aim of this study was twofold: (1) to examine whether memory capacity and MSE can predict the presence of memory complaints in stroke patients, and (2) to study which variables are the best predictors of MSE. Methods: In a cross-sectional study, 136 stroke patients (>18 months after onset) were recruited from April 2008 to November 2009. MSE was measured using the Metamemory in Adulthood questionnaire. Depression, coping and personality were measured using validated questionnaires, and memory performance was measured using the Rivermead Behavioural Memory Test (RBMT) and the Auditory Verbal Learning Test (AVLT). Patients were divided into a ‘complaints’ and a ‘no complaints’ group. Results: A lower MSE score was an independent predictor of having memory complaints (adjusted odds ratio: 0.422; p = 0.000), adjusted for age and depression. The RBMT and AVLT scores did not predict the presence of memory complaints (p > 0.263). Presence of memory complaints and depression were the strongest predictors of MSE (B = –1.748, p = 0.000; B = –0.054, p = 0.000), followed by word fluency, not having a partner and side of stroke (B = 0.038, p = 0.012; B = –0.517, p = 0.082; B = –0.479, p = 0.088). Conclusions: Memory complaints are predicted by MSE rather than memory capacity. MSE memory training might be an effective training strategy for reducing memory complaints in selected chronic stroke patients.

“…This was confirmed in our analysis. Depression is also known to be an important determinant of reduced HRQoL in other types of stroke [38,39]. Many SAH survivors suffer from residual cognitive impairment [40,41].…”

Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients with Subarachnoid Haemorrhage

Background: Aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating disease with high mortality and disability. The data from large longitudinal studies on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with SAH are limited. The objective was to investigate HRQoL in patients after SAH and to identify predictors of HRQoL. Methods: 113 patients with aneurysmal SAH were assigned to either neurosurgery (n = 57) or endovascular coiling (n = 56). Clinical assessments (Barthel Index, modified Rankin Scale) and evaluation of HRQoL [36-Item Short-Form Survey, EuroQol (EQ5D), EQ visual analogue scale (EQ VAS)] were performed at discharge, and at 6 and 12 months of follow-up. Independent predictors of HRQoL were determined using multiple regression analysis. Results: HRQoL in SAH patients was considerably reduced compared to the normal population. At discharge, 92.2% of the patients had moderate or severe problems on the EQ5D. The EQ VAS score was 57.8 ± 19.3. However, HRQoL still showed improvement from 3 months up to 1 year. At 12 months after SAH, the EQ VAS score was approximately 12–14% higher than at discharge. The independent predictors of decreased HRQoL included female gender, severe SAH, functional disability, depression, a lower level of education and the lack of a stable partnership. Conclusions: The long-term HRQoL outcome after SAH is unfavourable. HRQoL outcome measures should be included in future studies to provide better evidence of the long-term outcomes after SAH. In addition, the independent determinants of HRQoL identified in this study should be considered in the healthcare programmes aimed at increasing the HRQoL in SAH survivors.

Abstract-Poststroke depression (PSD) is common, affecting approximately one third of stroke survivors at any one time after stroke. Individuals with PSD are at a higher risk for suboptimal recovery, recurrent vascular events, poor quality of life, and mortality. Although PSD is prevalent, uncertainty remains regarding predisposing risk factors and optimal strategies for prevention and treatment. This is the first scientific statement from the American Heart Association on the topic of PSD. Members of the writing group were appointed by the American Heart Association Stroke Council's Scientific Statements Oversight Committee and the American Heart Association's Manuscript Oversight Committee. Members were assigned topics relevant to their areas of expertise and reviewed appropriate literature, references to published clinical and epidemiology studies, clinical and public health guidelines, authoritative statements, and expert opinion. This multispecialty statement provides a comprehensive review of the current evidence and gaps in current knowledge of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, outcomes, management, and prevention of PSD, and provides implications for clinical practice.
