Background summary
After stroke, approximately 30% of patients suffer from neuropsychiatric problems, such as depression and anxiety. Neuropsychiatric problems can have a negative impact on the recovery after stroke. Nevertheless, stroke care is often mainly focused on physical recovery. However, timely identification followed by – if necessary - adequate treatment of neuropsychiatric problems might not only reduce these problems, but also improve the general recovery after stroke.
Study objective
To determine: 1) How neuropsychiatrich problems change over time during the first year after stroke; 2) Which determinants are related to the course of neuropsychiatric problems over time during the first year after stroke; 3) What are the relationships between different neuropsychiatric problems during the first year after stroke.
Study design
A quantitative observational cross-sectional study. All patients who have been admitted with a stroke to one of the participating hospitals during the last year will receive a survey once to identify their neuropsychiatric problems.
Intervention
