Risk factors and countermeasures of depression in acute stroke patients in Wuhan / 公共卫生与预防医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the risk factors and countermeasures of depression in stroke patients in Wuhan. Methods A stratified cluster sampling method was used to randomly select 628 hospitalized patients at acute stage of stroke in Wuhan from June 2019 to June 2020. According to HAMD score, the patients were divided into normal group (n=381) and post-stroke depression group (n=247). The risk factors of depression in stroke patients were analyzed by Logistic regression using self-made questionnaire, including gender, age, education level, stroke type, residence, patient compliance to treatment, NIHSS score, ADL score and independent walking, and early intervention measures were proposed. Results Univariate analysis showed that education level, family burden, NIHSS score, ADL score and independent walking were related to the occurrence of depression in stroke patients (P<0.05). Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that, NIHSS score, ADL score and independent walking were correlated with depression in patients at acute stage after stroke (P<0.05). Conclusion the risk of depression in patients with acute cerebral apoplexy is higher, the patients' adherence to treatment, NIHSS score, ADL scores, situation of independent walking is a cause of depression in patients with cerebral apoplexy risk factors, should improve patients' adherence to treatment as soon as possible and daily life ability, improve nerve function, should pay attention to its early intervention.
