Movement behavior patterns composition remains stable, but individuals change their movement behavior pattern over time in people with a first-ever stroke.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Movement behaviors (i.e., physical activity levels, sedentary behavior) in people with stroke are not self-contained but cluster in patterns. Recent research identified three commonly distinct movement behavior patterns in people with stroke. However, it remains unknown if movement behavior patterns remain stable and if individuals change in movement behavior pattern over time.

Objectives

1) To investigate the stability of the composition of movement behavior patterns over time, and 2) determine if individuals change their movement behavior resulting in allocation to another movement behavior pattern within the first two years after discharge to home in people with a first-ever stroke.

Methods

Accelerometer data of 200 people with stroke of the RISE-cohort
