Identifying and Responding to Delirium in Acute Stroke
Delirium is associated with increased mortality, morbidity, and length of hospital stay. In the acute stroke setting, delirium identification is challenging due to the complexity of cognitive screening in this patient group. The aim of this study was to explore how members of interprofessional stroke-unit teams identified and responded to a potential delirium in a patient. Online focus groups and interviews utilizing case vignettes were conducted…
Factors influencing sedentary behaviours after stroke
Many stroke survivors indicate being open to reducing sedentary behaviour, with appropriate support from stroke service staff and caregivers. The findings from this study have contributed to an intervention development process using the Behaviour Change Wheel (BCW) approach to develop strategies to reduce sedentary behaviour after stroke
Physical environments and community reintegration post stroke

However, there has been no previous research into what services are available to support this. In 2009, we conducted the first European survey of community Exercise after…
