This is so simple to understand, survivors have NO PROTOCOLS to 100% recovery. That leads to anxiety, depression and thoughts of a worthless life. Solve the correct problem; 100% RECOVERY. When I was asked by a psychologist in the hospital if I blamed my body for failing me the answer was no. My physical abilities and cognitive reserve are what saved my life. She then asked if I had considered suicide. I said no, but I had already determined if I got to that point how it would happen, I would kneel down next to our 3 foot deep fish pond and just tip forward into it. I would never be able to get back out of that. I never even came close to initiating that, I'm way too stubborn.
This is a secondary problem, solve the primary problem of 100% recovery. Are you that blitheringly stupid that you, your mentors and senior researchers can't see that?
Association between stroke and subsequent risk of suicide: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Sequelae of stroke include poor mental health and depression, so researchers aimed at determining if stroke is linked with subsequent risk of suicide. By systematically searching MEDLINE, Embase, PsycINFO, and Google Scholar from inception to September 15, 2020, they screened 4,093 articles. Of these, they identified 23 studies of fair quality as eligible for inclusion, which included over 2 million stroke survivors, of whom 5,563 attempted suicide or died by suicide. Based on findings, they emphasize that stroke may be a risk factor for suicide. The pooled adjusted RR of suicide in stroke survivors was 1.73 vs the nonstroke group, with a significantly higher adjusted risk of suicide attempt than of death by suicide. A longer follow-up time in cohort studies was associated with a lower risk of suicide. In order to lower the burden of suicide in stroke survivors, comprehensive strategies to screen and treat depression and suicidal ideation in stroke survivors are needed.
