Abstract: Background and PurposeThe use of patient reported outcomes measures (PROMs) may offer utility that are important for stroke survivors. This study assessed the PROMIS-10, which contains Mental health (MH) and Physical Health (PH) domains, with an additional five stroke specific questions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between the MH and PH measures following a stroke and pre-existing health conditions.MethodsA multicentre prospective cohort study at 19 hospital sites across England and Wales during 2019 was conducted. The association between each PROMIS-10 domain and demographic and health conditions were calculated using a multilevel multivariable linear and present the adjusted mean difference (aMD).ResultsThe study enrolled 549 stroke survivors within 14 days of the index event, 232 were women (42.3%) and with a mean age of 72.7 years (SD = 12.9, range 25 to 97). The MH domain was scored as poor in 3.9% of participants, and very good or excellent in almost a half (48.4%). In contrast the PH domain was scored as poor in 39.9%, compared to very good or excellent in 8.5%. The MH domain was associated with pre-existing diabetes (aMD = − 2.01; 95%CI -3.91, − 0.12; p = 0.04), previous stroke (aMD = − 3.62; 95%CI -5.86, − 1.39; p = 0.001), age (aMD = 0.07; 95%CI: 0.01, 0.14; p = 0.037), and female sex (aMD = 1.91; 95%CI 0.28, 3.54; p = 0.022). The PH domain was found to be associated with sex (female) (aMD = 2.09; 95%CI 0.54, 3.65; p = 0.008) and previous stroke (aMD = − 3.05; 95%CI -5.17, − 0.93; p = 0.005).ConclusionsAlmost half of stroke survivors reported poor PH using a PROM with less reporting poor MH. age, and sex were associated with both MH and PH domains, and additionally pre-exising diabetes and stroke were associated with poorer MH. Clinical management offers an opportunity to investigate and intervene to prevent long term poorer health in stroke survivors.
