What FUCKING stupidity, we have known for decades about poststroke fatigue. Survivors want solutions, NOT ANOTHER STUDY.
Poststroke fatigue and daily activity patterns during outpatient rehabilitation: An experience sampling method study
Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation — Lenaert B, et al. | February 19, 2020
A longitudinal observational study using
the experience sampling method (ESM) was conducted to increase the
understanding of poststroke fatigue by investigating its momentary and
time-lagged relationship with daily activities. A total of 30
individuals with stroke were included. ESM is a structured diary method
that provides evaluating real-time symptoms, behavior, and environmental
characteristics in the flow of daily life, thereby capturing
moment-to-moment variations in fatigue and related factors. In this
study, individuals with stroke were followed for 6 consecutive days and
were prompted at 10 random moments daily to fill in a digital
questionnaire about their momentary fatigue and current activity using a
mobile application: type of activity, perceived effort and enjoyment,
and physical activity levels. This research demonstrates the requirement
for ESM to design personalized rehabilitation programs and to capture
fatigue and other patient-reported outcomes in daily life.
