Changes in fatigue after first-ever ischemic stroke and their associations with changes in physical fitness, body composition, and physical activity
Objectives
The objectives of the present study were 1) to describe changes in fatigue from 3 to 12 months post-stroke and compare different patterns of fatigue changes with respect to concurrent changes in physical fitness, body composition, and activity levels, and 2) to explore whether changes in fatigue are associated with changes in physical fitness, body composition, and physical activity levels in patients recovering from first-ever ischemic stroke.
Materials and methods
In this longitudinal observational study, we assessed 72 patients (mean age 62 years, 36 % females) at 3 and 12 months after first-ever ischemic stroke. Fatigue was measured with the 7-item Fatigue Severity Scale. Physical fitness, body composition and physical activity were assessed using cardiopulmonary exercise testing, physical function tests, Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry, and accelerometers.
Results
Fatigue levels was stable between 3 and 12 months post-stroke in 44 (61 %) patients, decreased in 14 (19 %), and increased in another 14 (19 %). Patients with increased fatigue levels showed a greater decrease in cardiorespiratory fitness, as measured directly by peak oxygen uptake, compared to those with decreased fatigue. Robust regression analysis, adjusted for age and sex, indicated that each kilogram of lean body mass gained from 3 to 12 months post-stroke was significantly associated with a 0.3-point reduction in fatigue during the same timeframe (B= -0.32; 95 %CI [-0.51, -0.12]).
Conclusion
There was considerable individual variation in changes to fatigue, physical fitness, body composition, and physical activity levels between 3 and 12 months following a first-ever ischemic stroke. Increased fatigue was linked to a greater concurrent decline in cardiorespiratory fitness, while lean body mass was associated with decreases in fatigue.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Stroke & Cerebrovascular Diseases publishes original papers on basic and clinical science related to the fields of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases. The Journal also features review articles, controversies, methods and technical notes, selected case reports and other original articles of special nature. Its editorial mission is to focus on prevention and repair of cerebrovascular disease. Clinical papers emphasize medical and surgical aspects of stroke, clinical trials and design, epidemiology, stroke care delivery systems and outcomes, imaging sciences and rehabilitation of stroke. The Journal will be of special interest to specialists involved in caring for patients with cerebrovascular disease, including neurologists, neurosurgeons and cardiologists.
