Abstract:
Objective:To explore the incidence and dynamic change of apathy after minor stroke and its influence on the quality of life.Methods:One hundred and six patients with minor stroke(NIHSS≤3) were selected as the research group, one hundred and six cases with healthy physical examination were selected as control group.The apathy evaluation scale, clinician version(AES-C) scale was used to evaluate the degree of apathy after minor stroke, then the patients were divided into minor post-stroke apathy group(mPSA group) and non post-stroke apathy group(NPSA group). At 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after onset, the follow-up visits were carried out and AES-C, modified Barthel index(MBI), modified Rankin scale(mRS) and stroke-specific quality of life scale(SS-QOL) were evaluated.The incidence of minor post-stroke apathy and its dynamic changes over time were analyzed, and the differences of related scales scores between the mPSA group and the NPSA group were compared.Results:The incidence of apathy in research group(35.1%) was higher than that of the control group(7.5%) ( P<0.05). The scores of MRS in the mPSA group at 1 month(1.06±0.86), 3 months(1.18±0.97), 6 months (1.09±0.85), 9 months(1.11±0.71), 12 months(1.11±0.72) after stroke were not significantly different from those in the NPSA group at 1 month(1.00±0.89), 3 months(0.95±0.83), 6 months (0.97±0.87), 9 months (1.00±0.80), 12 months(1.03±0.79) (all P>0.05). The scores of MBI in the mPSA group at 1 month (92.42±5.75), 3 months(91.32±5.81), 6 months (91.71±5.14), 9 months(91.67±4.78), 12 months (91.14±5.01) after stroke were not significantly different from those in the NPSA group at 1 month (91.97±5.79), 3 months(92.42±5.64), 6 months(92.29±5.67), 9 months(92.07±5.46), 12 months(92.12±5.35) (all P>0.05). The scores of SS-QOL in the mPSA group at 1 month (135.09±26.88), 3 months (132.71±24.91), 6 months (134.31±26.63), 9 months(135.89±24.86), 12 months (138.77±27.83) after stroke were lower than those in the NPSA group at 1 month (183.79±24.80), 3 months(183.77±24.18), 6 months (181.80±26.62), 9 months(179.86±28.92), 12 months (179.98±29.13) (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence of mPSA at each time point of follow-up( P>0.05). Conclusion:The incidence of apathy after minor stroke is significantly higher than that of the control group, and it remains relatively stable in the first year and seriously affect the quality of patients' life.
