Abstract

Objective To investigate the incidence and relative factors of post-stroke depression (PSD). Methods 520 patients with stroke were assessed by 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scales (HAMD). A self-designed register form was analysed in 520 stroke survivorsA multiple factor analysis with the logistic regression method was carried out on the basis of these data. Results Among them, 178 cases (34.2%) were identified as depression. The minor, moderate and major incedenses were 20.2%, 10.4% and 3.7% respectively. In addition, stepwise regression analysis shows that important risk factors involved in PSD contained depression history, sex, family harmony, accompanying disease, neurological deficit and stoke course. Conclusion The factors above were the major predictive factors and useful for PSD prevention
