Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to analyze and describe rehabilitation pathways of stroke patients in a region of North Norway and Central Denmark Region in relation to how patients perceive quality of life, health and functioning one year post stroke.

The study will consist of 1) Translate, cross-cultural adapt and validate a stroke-specific health-related questionnaire 2) Describe the level of quality of life and rehabilitation pathway in the two countries 3) In-depth interviews of a smaller group of patients for a more complex understanding

The study is part of a larger prospective observational multicenter-study of two patient cohorts with stroke.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Anticipated: 500 patients from Norway and 500 patients from Denmark are included in the national stroke-register datasets, and 250 patients from each country in the questionnaire-based datasets.

The questionnaire includes demographic data, the Stroke-Specific Quality of Life (SS-QOL) scale, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), The EuroQol Quality of Life scale (EQ-5D), the EuroQol Visual Analogue Scale (EQ-VAS), the Quality of Life After Brain Injury, Overall Scale QOLIBRI-OS, modified Rankin Scale (mRS), and additional questions about satisfaction on treatment and rehabilitation.

5-6 patients from each country will be selected for semi-structured interviews with both priori questions and exploratory questions.

The mixing of methods will balance the goals of generality and complex understanding in how patients describe their quality of life and rehabilitation-chain.
