In all these areas people described the loss of social contact that accompanied these changes, and the loss of valued roles which had been embedded in the everyday functions they had previously performed. In general, people over the age of 70 were more seriously affected. <\/jats:p><jats:p> Conclusion: The type of changes which people reported would not easily have been captured using standardized outcome measures, pointing to the value of qualitative methods in providing subjective accounts. In terms of clinical practice, there is a need to reduce people's isolation after stroke by providing home visits after discharge, particularly to those living alone, and also by reducing disability through rehabilitation and by tackling the environmental obstacles which can imprison people in their homes. The findings suggest that many people with stroke would benefit from being able to talk about the changes which have occurred. Imaginative proposals are needed to develop ways to help replace the loss of activities, social contacts and social roles, particularly among older people with stroke. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1191\/026921598677661555","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2003,5,13]],"date-time":"2003-05-13T05:30:08Z","timestamp":1052803808000},"page":"338-347","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":176,"title":["A patient-centred study of the consequences of stroke"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Pandora","family":"Pound","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Primary Care and Population Sciences, Royal Free Hospital                         School of Medicine, London"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Patrick","family":"Gompertz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Health Care for the Elderly, Royal London Hospital, London"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shah","family":"Ebrahim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Primary Care and Population Sciences, Royal Free Hospital                         School of Medicine, London"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1998,8,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","first-page":"61","volume":"14","author":"Mahoney FI","year":"1965","journal-title":"Md State Med J"},{"key":"atypb2","volume-title":"International Classification of Impairments, Disabilities and Handicaps","author":"World Health Organization","year":"1980"},{"key":"atypb3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ageing\/12.2.166"},{"key":"atypb4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jech.40.2.166"},{"key":"atypb5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.STR.27.10.1812"},{"key":"atypb6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jnnp.57.7.825"},{"key":"atypb7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.STR.24.2.320"},{"key":"atypb8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.STR.27.9.1467"},{"key":"atypb9","first-page":"75","volume":"16","author":"Meredith P","year":"1996","journal-title":"J Qual Clin Practice"},{"key":"atypb10","first-page":"25","volume":"22","author":"Harries U","year":"1994","journal-title":"Health Service J"},{"key":"atypb11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jech.50.1.94"},{"key":"atypb12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.311.6999.251"},{"key":"atypb13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/CBO9780511983238"},{"key":"atypb14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0277-9536(86)90171-1"},{"key":"atypb15","first-page":"82","volume-title":"Qualitative gerontology","author":"Kaufman SR","year":"1988"},{"key":"atypb16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.311.6996.18"},{"key":"atypb17","first-page":"139","volume-title":"Community care: asking the users","author":"Pound P","year":"1995"},{"key":"atypb18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/qshc.3.2.69"},{"key":"atypb19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ageing\/24.2.137"},{"key":"atypb20","volume-title":"Grounded theory, procedures and techniques","author":"Strauss A","year":"1990"},{"key":"atypb21","volume-title":"Some Lives!
