Post-stroke fatigue and its dimensions over the second half year after stroke.

Objective: Introduction: Post-stroke fatigue (PSF) is a common and often debilitating sequel of both ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes. The aim: Assess the rates and intensities of PSF over the second half year after stroke.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: There were examined 128 patients at 6, 9 and 12 months after ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke onset.

Clinical factors related to post-stroke fatigue within the first 3 month after acute cerebrovascular events.

Introduction: Post-stroke fatigue (PSF) is a common stroke complication with long-term negative consequences.

Aim: Assess the rates of certain PSF domains within first 3 months after different acute cerebrovascular events (ACE) and identify clinical factors associated with each PSF domain.

Material And Methods: There were examined 285 patients (195 with ischemic strokes, 39 with hemorrhagic strokes and 51 with transient ischemic attacks (TIA)) consequently at hospital stay, in 1 month and in 3 months after ACE.

Post-stroke fatigue and its dimensions within first 3 months after stroke.

Introduction: Post-stroke fatigue (PSF) is a common stroke complication with long-term negative consequences.

Aim: Assess the qualitative and quantitative PSF characteristics during 3 month post-stroke period.

Materials And Methods: There were examined 141 patients with acute ischemic or hemorrhagic strokes at hospital stay, in 1, 2 and 3 months after stroke.
