Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The aim of the study is to assess the predictors of the health-related quality of life in young patients under 50 years after ischemic stroke, and to evaluate specific changes in different dimensions of health-related quality of life during the first year of post-stroke recovery using a standardized battery of neuropsychological tools and stroke specific health-related quality of life measures. The aims of the study will be met by the triangulation of qualitative and quantitative research methods.
In the first phase of the study, 300 IS patients will be enrolled for the validation of the Czech version of the the Stroke Impact Scale 3.0. The reliability and validity study will have a cross-sectional design. In the second phase of study, 200 enrolled IS patients (100 young IS patients \< 50 years and 100 IS patients of 50-65 years) will undergo a serial of structured and standardized questionnaires during scheduled outpatients' controls three, six and 12 months after IS. In all enrolled patients, the functional outcome, neuropsychological status and quality of life will be assessed using standardized scales and tools. In the third phase of study, twenty young IS patients \< 50 years will undergo an in-depth, semi-structured interview with explanatory questions that will allow a detailed understanding of the patient's experience. Interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) study design will be used.

Prospective quantitative study
Two hundred enrolled IS patients (100 young IS patients \< 50 years and 100 IS patients of 50-65 years) will undergo a serial of structured and standardized questionnaires during scheduled outpatients' controls three, six and 12 months after IS.
