Abstract：
:This study explored the characteristics associated with the use of self-care products and practices by people rehabilitating from stroke. A cross-sectional sub-study of the Sax Institute's 45 and Up Study in which 1300 participants who had indicated a doctor had diagnosed them as having had a stroke were mailed a sub-study survey. The survey instrument included questionnaire items on demographics, self-care products and practices, health status and stroke status. The survey was completed by 576 (44.3%) of those eligible. At least one self-care product or practice was used by 39.9% of participants. Female participants were more likely than males to use self-care products (P ≤ .001) and self-care practices (P = .021). Self-care product use was higher amongst those with higher levels of fatigue (OR = 1.07) and/or those reporting slight (OR = 2.05) or moderate disability (OR = 2.28), compared with those who had no symptoms at all. As the burden of stroke survivorship increases because of improved acute stroke care in an ageing population, a stronger focus is needed by researchers, clinicians and policy makers on the self-care strategies used by stroke survivors and the ability for health professionals to appropriately support stroke survivors' in their rehabilitation and long-term management.
