Abstract:
Objective To analyse the adherence of community-dwelling stroke survivors to functional exercise regimens and explore the influencing factors.Then to establish measures to improve the situation.Methods A total of 208 stroke survivors from 10 communities were randomly recruited.Four questionnaires-a general information questionnaire,an exercise adherence questionnaire,a self-efficacy perceptions scale and a perceived social support scale-were administered.Results The mean adherence score was 34.71 ± 8.45 and the mean adherence rate was 61.98％.The compliance to physical exercise,seeking advice positively and exercise effectiveness monitoring scores ranged from highest to lowest in order.Self-efficacy perceptions and perceived social support were both positively correlated with the adherence rate.Multiple linear regression showed that the influencing factors included self efficacy perceptions,social support perceptions,self-care ability and age.Conclusions The community stroke survivors' exercise adherence was moderate in general,but it could be improved by increasing their self-efficacy and social support perceptions and their self-care ability.
