[Usefulness of the activities of daily living questionnaire (T-ADLQ) in patients with minor stroke].
Revista Médica de Chile 2017 Februrary
BACKGROUND: The inability to carry out activities of daily living (ADL) is prevalent in elderly people and it is associated with hypertension and stroke.
AIM: To evaluate ADLs using the T-ADLQ in hypertensive patients with minor stroke.
SUBJECTS AND METHODS: T-ADLQ, Cognitive tests (Minimental and Addenbrooke), and Hamilton depression test were applied to 100 hypertensive ambulatory patients (55 without symptomatic stroke and 45 with ischemic stroke, Rankin ≤ 2).
RESULTS: In stroke patients the ability to perform ADL was significantly reduced compared with hypertensive patients without stroke. Cognitive dysfunction and depressive symptoms were associated with a lower ADL performance.
CONCLUSIONS: The T-ADLQ is useful to evaluate ADL in hypertensive ambulatory patients with ischemic stroke.
