Incidence, Complications, Patients with stroke, Rehabilitation phaseAbstract
This descriptive retrospective analysis research aimed to study incidence and predicting factors associated with complications in patients with stroke in rehabilitation phase at Thung Khoa Luang Hospital in Roi-Et Province. Samples were 136 patients with stroke in rehabilitation phase who were admitted in inpatient ward at Thung Khoa Luang Hospital between January 1, 2018, and December 31, 2022, and who met the inclusion criteria. Data were collected from medical records by using a data record form with a content validity of 1. Sample data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics and multiple logistic regression statistics.
The findings showed that from 136 samples had complications (58.09%), which were divided among pneumonia (44.30%), pressure sores (32.91%), urinary tract infections (13.92%), and joint stiffness and muscular atrophy (8.86%). Predicting factors associated with complications in patients with stroke in rehabilitation phase at Thung Khoa Luang Hospital were male (OR Adj 3.56; 95 %
CI = 1.33, 9.54; p = 0.012), those with Activity Daily Living scores between 25 and 45 (OR Adj 7.38; 95% CI = 1.48, 36.89; p = 0.015), those with Activity Daily Living score between 75 and 90 (OR Adj 4.64; 95 % CI = 1.08, 19.86; p = 0.039), dysphagia issues (OR Adj 9.06; 95 % CI = 2.66, 30.85; p < 0.001), and urine and bowel incontinence (OR Adj 9.35; 95 % CI = 1.41, 61.86; p = 0.020).
