Art-based Activities in Stroke Patients

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Introduction and Aim: Life after stroke begins a difficult period in which functional capacity is very limited. Disability persists for a long time, and various problems such as hemiparesis, hemiplegia, dysarthria, dysphagia, urinary and bowel incontinence, which are frequently encountered after stroke, can affect the quality of life in the long term. As non-pharmacological approaches, especially non-invasive methods, have gained attention, creative arts-based therapies have often been recommended for stroke survivors because they have an arts-based approach without side effects. It is thought that the study conducted will contribute to the literature as there are not many studies in the literature. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of art-based activities on stroke patients' hope and self-efficacy levels. Its sub-purpose is to reveal the feelings and thoughts that arise with art objects obtained from art-based activities applied to stroke patients. Materials and Methods: The study was conducted as a randomised controlled design. After the groups were determined, art-based activities module was applied to the intervention group for one week, while no additional intervention was made to the control group. Research data were collected using "Individual Introduction Form", "Herth Hope Index", "Generalized Self-Efficacy Scale. Data were analyzed with Statistical Package for the Social Sciences 25.0 package program. Written permission was obtained from the relevant ethics committee, hospital and participants to conduct the study.
