Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify influencing factors on rehabilitation adherence in stroke patients. Methods: This study was a descriptive survey. A structured questionnaire was used for face-to-face interviews with a convenient sample of 192 subjects, who were admitted in 5 rehabilitation hospitals located in G metropolitan city. Results: The score of rehabilitation motivation in the subjects was a mean of $2.04{\pm}0.35$, self-efficacy $6.22{\pm}2.32$, family support $3.40{\pm}0.82$ and rehabilitation adherence $3.08{\pm}0.41$. The rehabilitation adherence was a statistically significant difference according to the education level (F= 3.40, p= .035), marital status (F= 4.04, p= .019), number of personal insurance policies (K= 9.80, p= .020), location of paresis (F= 2.72, p= .046), and status of current smoking (M = 657.00, p= .001). There was significant correlation among degree of rehabilitation adherence, rehabilitation motivation (r= .30, p< .001), self-efficacy (r= .14, p= .046) and family support (r= .18, p= .011). Rehabilitation motivation (${\beta}=0.19$, p= .007), self-efficacy (${\beta}=0.14$, p= .035), marital status (${\beta}=0.14$, p= .038), number of personal insurance policies (${\beta}=-0.15$, p= .045) and location of paresis(${\beta}=-0.15$, p= .028) were identified as significant predictors. This model explained 22.6% of variance in rehabilitation adherence (F= 5.92, p< .001). Conclusion: There is a need to develop an effective intervention for rehabilitation adherence improvement considering the identified variables in this study.
