Association of Balance Self-efficacy with Activity and Participation in Chronic Stroke Patients of Lahore, Pakistan
Abstract
Abstract Views: 16
Stroke is a major cause of disability and causes a number of impairments including balance issues, gait impairments, and loss of daily life activities. The incidence of stroke is increasing in developing countries like Pakistan because of the increasing life stresses. The purpose of this research is to analyze the association of balance self-efficacy with activity and participation in chronic stroke patients. This was a cross-sectional study
conducted in Lahore; Pakistan in 2017. The population of the current study was chronic stroke patients. The study was completed within 3 months after the approval of the synopsis. Non-probability convenient sampling
technique was employed to conduct this study. A Sample of 135 stroke patients was taken from a population of 3500 from the stroke care unit of above-mentioned hospital. Ischemic stroke patients and patients with 6
months of stroke were included in this study. Unstable patients with other systemic diseases and with psychological issues were excluded from this study. ABC scale was used for the evaluation of balance self-efficacy and the Modified Barthel index was used for assessment activity and participation in stroke patients. The data was analyzed using SPSS v20. The result showed that the P value of balance self-efficacy is 0.000. As the P value is less than 0.05 so the association is significant. P value ≤ .05 was considered statistically significant. There is a significant association of balance self-efficacy with activity and participation in chronic stroke
patients.
