    Study Notes

    Stroke: Types, Complications, Risk Factors, and Exercise Considerations

    • Stroke events have plateaued after decreasing, with 7x greater risk for indigenous populations
    • Ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes are the two main types, both leading to CNS damage
    • Common disabilities resulting from stroke include communication and mobility limitations
    • Ischemic strokes account for 85% and are further subcategorized into thrombotic and embolic
    • Hemorrhagic strokes, less common at 15%, involve bleeding into the brain tissue or cranium
    • Post-stroke complications include depression, CAD, hypertension, T2DM, obesity, and falls
    • Non-modifiable stroke risk factors include age, gender, blood pathologies, and circadian factors
    • Primary prevention focuses on targeting hypertension, CVD, smoking, insulin resistance, and hyperlipidemia
    • Stroke classification considers cause, severity, duration, and symptoms
    • Clinical presentations of stroke include impairments in motor, sensory, language, perception, and affective/mood
    • Factors affecting participation post-stroke include physical severity, comorbidities, mental state, and social support
    • Aerobic exercise testing post-stroke involves pre-screening, gradual intensity increase, and termination criteria

    Dementia and Behavioral Symptoms

    • Behavioral and Psychological Symptoms of Dementia (BPSD) include depression (20%), anxiety (16-35%), apathy (55-90%), agitation/aggression (60%), and psychosis (25%).
    • People with dementia have a high risk of falls, with 70% of them experiencing falls each year.
    • Pharmacological management of dementia symptoms includes cholinesterase inhibitors (Donepezil, Rivastigmine, Galantamine) and memantine, with potential side effects.
    • Non-pharmacological treatments for BPSD include exercise programming and communication strategies.
    • Communication changes in dementia may include difficulty finding words, loss of social conventions, and difficulty expressing emotions.
    • Effective communication with people with dementia involves respecting, listening, using body language, speaking clearly, and allowing processing time.
    • Carer engagement is essential in the management of dementia, with a focus on understanding the person's needs and providing education and support for the carer.
    • Practical considerations for exercise in dementia include supervision, tailoring, and focusing on strengths.
    • Person-centered care for dementia involves shared goals based on the person's values and experiences, respect, and understanding of unmet needs.
    • Exercise selection for dementia should be evidence-based and tailored to physical, functional, cognitive, and mood needs, taking into account the setting and social and socioeconomic situation.
    • The evidence for exercise benefits in dementia is limited by factors such as exclusion from research, small sample sizes, and low methodological quality.
    • Exercise has been shown to improve activities of daily living, balance, gait performance, mobility, endurance, and strength in people with dementia.
