Abstract
Objective
To build a model of prediction of social participation of community-dwelling stroke
survivors in Benin at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months.
Design
An observational study with evaluations at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months poststroke.
Correlational analyses and multivariate linear regressions were performed.
Setting
Outpatient rehabilitation centers in Benin.
Participants
A volunteer sample of 91 stroke patients was enrolled at baseline; 64 (70%) patients
completed all the study (N=64): 70% male and 52% right hemiparesis.
Intervention
Not applicable.
Main Outcome Measures
Participants were evaluated with the Participation Measurement Scale, ACTIVLIM-Stroke
(activities of daily living [ADL]), Stroke Impairment Assessment Set, 6-minute walk
test, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and the modified Rankin Scale.
Results
The significant predictors of social participation after controlling the confounders
were the following: at 1 month ADL (0.4 [0.3, 0.6]) and depression (‒0.6 [‒0.8, ‒0.2])
with total model R2=0.44; at 3 months ADL (0.58 [0.4, 0.7]) and depression (‒0.58 [‒0.5, ‒0.7]) with
total model R2=0.65; and at 6 months ADL (0.31 [0.2, 0.5]), impairments (‒0.82 [‒0.5, ‒0.7]), and
depression (‒0.94 [‒0.8, ‒0.2]) with total model R2=0.78.
Conclusions
Using socioculturally tailored tools, the present study identified ADL performance
(ACTIVLIM-Stroke), depression (Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale), and overall impairments
(Stroke Impairment Assessment Set) as the significant determinants of social participation
(Participation Measurement Scale) poststroke in Benin. These findings will be a valuable
resource for rehabilitation stakeholders in evaluating interventions, programs, and
policies designed to encourage social participation for stroke patients.
