- Brief Summary
This study examines the effects of a transitional care program in stroke patients on self-care behavior, quality of life, and hospital readmission.
The research conceptual framework is based on the Transitional Care Model by Naylor. Sixty participants with stroke patients at Charoenkrung Pracharak Hospital will be recruited. These participants are stratified by block randomization using NIHSS score and divided into 2 groups; a control group (n=30) and an intervention group (n=30).
The program consisted of 2 phases: 1) Phase I during hospital admission and 2) Phase II following hospital discharge
- Detailed Description
This study is to examine the effects of a transitional care program in stroke patients on self-care behavior, quality of life, and hospital readmission.
The research conceptual framework base on Transitional Care Model by Naylor. Sixty participants with stroke patients at Charoenkrung Pracharak Hospital will be recruited. These participants are stratified block randomization using NIHSS score and divide into 2 groups; control group (n=30) and intervention groups (n=30).
The program consisted of 2 phases: 1) Phases I during hospital admission and 2) Phases II following hospital discharge for 4 weeks. The instruments used in this study for collecting the data are 1) The Personal Data Form, 2) The Self-care Behavior Questionare and 3) The Stroke Impact Scale (SIS) 3.0. Data will be analyzed using descriptive statistics and two-way repeated measures ANOVA.
The result of this study will be used to develop guideline for nursing care in stroke patients during the transition from hospital to home. This program will help the patients improve their self-care, quality of life, and reduce hospital readmission

Group Intervention Description Intervention group Intervention group In this arm, the participant will receive standard nursing care and the program from an investigator. The program consisted of 2 phases: 1) Phases I during hospital admission when they are stable will receive a program total 4 times for education about stroke, self-care, rehabilitation, and complication prevention and 2) Phases II following hospital discharge within 24 hours then every 1 week until 4 weeks by Line Application visit. following self-care management, find limit to their self-care. and Outcomes Assessor will visit to collect data 3 times 1. In-hospital period 2. after hospital discharge 4 weeks 3. after hospital discharge 12 weeks
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Compare Mean differences of self-care behavior on stroke patient. Baseline, 4 weeks, 12 weeks Each participant was asked using by self-care behavior questionnaire (Thai version) develop by Kasama Chiangtong (2011) is a 15-item self-report assessment of self-care behavior. Each item is rated using a 4-point Likert scale, where: 0 = never, 1= sometimes (1-2 times/week), 2= often (3-5 times/week), 3= regular. Scores range from 11 to 45 and higher scores indicate a high self-care behavior management. will use two-way repeated-measures ANOVA statistics for data analysis.
Compare Mean differences of Quality Of Life on stroke patient. Baseline, 4 weeks, 12 weeks Each participant was asked using by The Stroke Impact Scale: SIS 3.0 develop by Duncan, Bode, Lai, \& Perera, 2003 (Thai version by Garnjanagoonchorn A, and Dajpratham P, 2015) is a 59-item self-report assessment of stroke outcome used to assess HRQoL. There are 8 domains: strength, hand function, mobility, physical and instrumental activities of daily living, memory and thinking, communication, emotion, and social participation. Each item is rated using a 5-point Likert scale. The patient rates his/her difficulty completing each item, where: 1 = an inability to complete the item, 5 = no difficulty experienced at all. An extra question on stroke recovery asks that the client rate on a scale from 0 - 100 how much the client feels that he/she has recovered from his/her stroke. Scores for each domain range from 0 to 100; 0 = no recovery, 100 = full recovery. and higher scores indicate a better HRQoL. will use two-way repeated-measures ANOVA statistics for data analysis.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Participants with Hospital Readmission. 4 weeks. Each participants were monitored for up to 4 weeks after hospital discharge. This is the number of participants who have had ischemic stroke with readmission within 28 days after hospital discharge with recurrence of the disease or complications from stroke. rate of Hospital Readmission will use descriptive statistics for data analysis.
