Background: Patient adherence is a crucial determinant of rehabilitation in the long term after stroke. However, adherence is inconstant and fluctuates along a time course, and the underlying regular pattern of adherence variation remains to be clarified.
Objective: We aimed to describe the longitudinal pattern of adherence to rehabilitation exercises in stroke patients and to determine different adherence phases based on formulated rehabilitation adherence curve.
Patients and methods: Rehabilitation adherence levels were prospectively collected using the Questionnaire of Exercise Adherence (EAQ) among patients diagnosed with first-onset stroke since the second week of stroke onset, with a follow-up of 24 weeks. SPSS19.0 was used to formulate a fitting curve based on a scatter diagram. Possible causal factors for the different adherence phases are also discussed from the psychological, socioeconomic, and behavioral aspects.
Results: A total of 98 patients were included in this study. General adherence of the included subjects was classified as low to medium during follow-up. The adherence fitting curve was an “S” curve, with the fitting function y =0.005x3-0.211x2+1.963x+52.345. Three phases, namely, rapid increase phase, slow decrease phase, and stable phase, were identified based on the adherence curve, and relevant theories are explored.
Conclusion: Rehabilitation adherence of stroke patients is a dynamic behavioral process that continuously changes along a time course, with a regular pattern of an “S” curve and includes a rapid increase phase, a slow decrease phase, and a stable phase.
