[PDF] SEXUALITY WITHIN STROKE REHABILITATION
Section A is a broad review of the literature relating to post-stroke sexuality and how thishas been addressed to date within stroke rehabilitation. Initially a contextual overview is
given followed by a review of the literature concerning the impact of a stroke on sexuality.
Following this the literature relating to how sexuality has been approached within stroke
rehabilitation and available interventions are reviewed. The review concludes with
recommendations for future research.
Section B presents a grounded theory of the process by which healthcare professionals
within stroke rehabilitation engage with the sexual concerns of their patients. A conceptual
model is outlined. Ten healthcare professionals (HCPs) working within stroke rehabilitation
were interviewed. The differing ways in which HCPs engage with patients in relation to
sexual issues is presented. A process is suggested by which HCPs personal level of comfort
around sexuality interacts with a series of personal, societal and organisation barriers to
limit the action they choose to take. The findings are presented in relation to existing
evidence and policy, and the implications for clinical interventions for patients and staff are
discussed, alongside directions for future research.
Section C contains the appendices of the first two sections.
