Acidente Vascular Cerebral, COVID-19Resumo
Apesar de devastadora, a pandemia trouxe
oportunidades para investigar o funcionamento dos
serviços de reabilitação em diferentes contextos de
saúde. O objetivo deste artigo é identificar os fatores
relacionados ao acesso de indivíduos com AVC aos
serviços de reabilitação um mês após a alta hospitalar.
Trata-se de estudo longitudinal prospectivo, em
que indivíduos com AVC foram recrutados em uma
metrópole brasileira no período de setembro de 2019 a
fevereiro de 2021. Os fatores relacionados ao acesso aos
serviços de reabilitação foram investigados por meio
de análise de regressão linear, considerando 11 variáveis
sociodemográficas e clínico-funcionais e o período de
acesso aos serviços de reabilitação (antes ou durante a
pandemia de covid-19) (α=5%). No total foram incluídos 150 participantes, dos quais 50,7% tiveram acesso a serviços
de reabilitação no período pré-pandemia e 49,3% no período
pandêmico. O nível de independência funcional foi o único
fator significativo, explicando 27% (F=56,2; p<0,001) do acesso.
O menor nível de independência funcional foi o único fator
associado ao acesso aos serviços de reabilitação um mês após a
alta hospitalar em indivíduos com AVC, independentemente do
período pandêmico.
