  • Exploring heterogeneity of stroke-patients with latent class analysis based on patient reported outcomes

    ObjectiveTo categorize and describe stroke-patients based on factors related to patient reported outcomes. MethodsA questionnaire survey was conducted among stroke-patients in nine hospitals and communities in Shanxi Province. The general information questionnaire and stroke-patient reported outcome manual (Stroke-PROM) were completed. Latent profile analysis was used to analyze the scores of Stroke-PROM, and the explicit variables of the model were the final scores of each dimension. ANOVA and correlation analysis were used to measure the correlation between the factors and subtypes. ResultsFour unique stroke-patient profiles emerged, including a low physiological and low social group (9%), a high physiological and middle social group (40%), a middle physiological and middle social group (26%), and a middle physiological and high social group (25%). There were significant differences in scores of four areas among patients with different subtypes (P<0.05). Moreover, there was a correlation between age, payment, exercise and subtypes (P<0.05). ConclusionThere are obvious grouping characteristics for stroke patients. It is necessary to focus on stroke patients who are advanced in age, have a self-funded status and lack exercise, and provide targeted nursing measures to improve their quality of life.
