Associations between pre-stroke physical activity levels and health-related quality of life 3 months after stroke: A registry-based study (part of PAPSIGOT).

ABSTRACT:

Background

Whether pre-stroke physical activity is associated with health-related quality of life after stroke has been sparsely investigated.

Aims

To explore associations between pre-stroke physical activity and health-related quality of life 3 months after stroke onset.

Methods

A consecutively collected cohort study with data from registries. Included were adult patients with first stroke in the period 2014-2018 who were hospitalized at any one of the three stroke units in Gothenburg, Sweden. Pre-stroke physical activity was assessed with the Saltin-Grimby Physical Activity Level Scale (SGPALS) after hospital admission for acute stroke. Health-related quality of life was assessed with the EuroQoL 5 Dimensions 5 Level Version (EQ-5D-5L) 3 months after stroke. Data we
