Intervention Effectiveness Towards Improving Physical and Mental Health for Post-stroke Patients.
February 27, 2024 updated by: Hanoi Medical University
This is a multi-intervention randomized controlled trial that aimed to develop a management pattern for stroke survivors.
The program consists of monitoring the recovery process, early detecting the physical and mental disorders, suitably intervening for each patient to improve their quality of life.
New intervention techniques will be firstly applied for post-stroke patients in Vietnam such as using the portable functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) device to explore cortex frontal hemodynamic and motivational interviewing for psychological adjustment.
A total of registered 92 stroke patients in Vietnam National Geriatrics Hospital will be included in the study for 6 months.
Included patients will be randomized to an intervention group and received the long-term follow-up program or to a control group receiving standard care.
The mental health and physical functioning of participants will be assessed at 0, 1, 3, and 6 months follow-up.
This work was funded by Vingroup Joint Stock Company and supported by the Domestic Master/Ph.D. Scholarship Programme of Vingroup Innovation Foundation (VINIF), Vingroup Big Data Institute (VINBIGDATA).

Detailed Description
Stroke is a medical condition that occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain is either blocked by a clot or bursts (or ruptures).
This is a major cause of death and disability worldwide.
Post-stroke patients will experience sudden and intense changes in their physical and mental health during the first year.
Currently, there is no official management model for improving the physical and mental health of patients after stroke in Vietnam.
Furthermore, traditional neuroimaging techniques such as Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), Positron emission tomography (PET), Electroencephalogram (EEG) are not suitable for routine monitoring due to limited flexibility dynamics and costs.
Hence, this study aimed to develop a management pattern that includes monitoring the recovery process, early detecting the physical and mental disorders, suitably intervening for each patient to improve their quality of life.
New intervention techniques will be firstly applied for post-stroke patients in Vietnam such as using the portable fNIRS device to explore cortex frontal hemodynamic and motivational interviewing for psychological adjustment.
This randomized controlled trial study will include 92 post-stroke patients with dividing two groups (46 control & 46 intervention subjects), who experience emergency by stroke within one week.
A multi-intervention program will design for stroke patients including [1] periodic health examination for assessment of physical and mental health, recurrence risks, and harmful behaviors; [2] guiding the appropriate rehabilitation exercises for improving the physical status and monitoring through daily online report; [3] using the motivational interviewing methods to improve and prevent mental disorder; [4] applicating the technique of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) for measurement of oxy-hemoglobin on cortex prefrontal to early detect mental disorder and stroke recurrence risks.
Outcome data will be collected via study questionnaires and fNIRS measuring results which are administered by researchers in the study site at 0, 1, 3, and 6 months follow-up.
Simultaneously, Motivational Interviewing will carry out on post-stroke patients in the first three months (one time per week in the first month and one time per the second and third month).
This intervention method aims to discover and resolve patient's conflicts by a standardized communication skill to improve their mental health and change negative behaviors.
The scores of the Stroke Impact Scale (SIS), physical and mental assessment scales and fNIRS data in both the groups will be used to calculate the effect estimates of intervention methods with a measure of precision (95% CI) and assessed the results of the trial.

Experimental: Multi-intervention program
A multi-intervention program will design for stroke patients including [1] periodic health examination for assessment of physical and mental health, recurrence risks, and harmful behaviors; [2] guiding the appropriate rehabilitation exercises for improving the physical status and monitoring through daily online report; [3] using the motivational interviewing methods to improve and prevent mental disorder; [4] applicating the technique of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) for measurement of oxy-hemoglobin on cortex prefrontal to early detect mental disorder and stroke recurrence risks.
|
The stroke survivors will be assessed their physical and mental health, recurrence risks, and harmful behaviors at 0, 1, 3, and 6 months by specific scales.
The appropriate rehabilitation exercises will be designed and guided for each patient and they will be followed up by the daily online report.
Motivational Interviewing will carry out on post-stroke patients in the first three months (one time per week in the first month and one time per the second and third month).
This intervention method aims to discover and resolve patient's conflicts by a standardized communication skill to improve their mental health and change negative behaviors.
Other Names:

Moreover, the cortex hemodynamic measure by fNIRS may detect early various mental disorders such as depression, anxiety, schizophrenia... through cognitive tasks.

Time Frame: Baseline, 1, 3, and 6 month post intervention
|
A screening tool for post-stroke cognitive impairment.
Scores range from 0 to 30 points, with lower scores indicating greater impairment.
MMSE scores of approximately 21 to 25 are consistent with mild dementia, 11 to 20 with moderate, and 0 to 10 with severe.

Time Frame: Baseline, 1, 3, and 6 months post intervention
|
The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) is a screening tool for post-stroke depression and assessing the changes at baseline, 1, 3, and 6 months.
The possible range is 0-27 and the higher scores mean worse outcomes (Depression Severity: 0-4 none, 5-9 mild, 10-14 moderate, 15-19 moderately severe, 20-27 severe)

Baseline, 1, 3, and 6 months post intervention
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Fatigue severity scale (FSS)
Time Frame: Baseline, 1, 3, and 6 months post intervention
|
The fatigue severity scale (FSS) is a 9-item questionnaire with questions to measure fatigue for stroke patients.
The items are scored on a 7 point scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree).
The minimum score = 9 and the maximum score possible =63.
Higher the score is respectively greater fatigue severity.
|
Baseline, 1, 3, and 6 months post intervention
|
Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI)
Time Frame: Baseline, 1, 3, and 6 month post intervention
|
The Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) was designed as a self-rated questionnaire that assesses sleep quality and disturbances over a 1-month time.
It includes seven subscores, each of which can range from 0 to 3. The subscores are tallied, yielding a total score that can range from 0 to 21.
A total score of 5 or more indicates poor sleep quality; the higher the score, the worse the quality.
|
Baseline, 1, 3, and 6 month post intervention
|
Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test-Concise (AUDIT-C)
Time Frame: Baseline, 1, 3, and 6 month post intervention
|
Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test-Concise (AUDIT-C) is a 3-item alcohol screen that can help identify persons who are hazardous drinkers or have active alcohol use disorders.
There are 3 questions and are scored on a scale of 0-12.
Each question has 5 answer choices valued from 0 points to 4 points.
In men, a score of 4 or more is considered positive, optimal for identifying hazardous drinking or active alcohol use disorders.
In women, a score of 3 or more is considered positive.
|
Baseline, 1, 3, and 6 month post intervention
|
Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND)
Time Frame: Baseline, 1, 3, and 6 months post intervention
|
An ordinal measure of nicotine dependence related to cigarette smoking.
In scoring the Fagerstrom Test for Nicotine Dependence, yes/no items are scored from 0 to 1 and multiple-choice items are scored from 0 to 3. The items are summed to yield a total score of 0-10.
The higher the total Fagerström score, the more intense is the patient's physical dependence on nicotine.
