[en] BACKGROUND: Strokes have a high morbidity and mortality rate in Spain and, due to Covid-19, the effects of stroke have increased. Two of three people that have overcome a stroke, still have some side effects of it though (which in many cas-es cause disability), therefore, they require some level of family care and this leads to the relatives of these patients see their physical and mental health diminished. Like-wise, although the quality of hospital care has improved, much remains to be done in the follow-up once the stroke patients are discharged. OBJETIVES: The objective of this research is to analyse the sequels presented by patients who have suffered from an ischemic stroke, and who were treated in the acute phase by mechanical thrombectomy, both their severity and the affectation and adaptation to the daily life of the patients in Alaba and the region of Alto Deba. METHODS: A bibliographic search has been carried out for articles that study the quality of life (QoL) of stroke patients and their caregivers, to have them as a reference to be able to design our questionnaires, which include sociodemographic and clinical data and standardized scales (Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL), European Quality of Life 5 Dimensions (EQ-5D), SF-36, WHOQOL-Bref, Zarit Burden Scale Interview (ZBI) and Caregiver Quality of Life Index (CQLI)). Subsequently, a clinical interview was carried out with the participants to complete the questionnaires and statistical analysis of these was obtained. RESULTS: A total of 40 patients and 28 caregivers were studied. Most of the patients were women (55%) with a mean age of 72.7 ± 10.2 years, and with a good functional capacity (mRS 0-2), but with a QoL that can be improved. The mean score on the SS-QOL was 182 ± 40 and on the EQ-5D 0.63 ± 0.42. In the SF-36, only two domains (emotional role 74.2 ± 42.4 and body pain 70.2 ± 22.6) exceeded the 70 points, and the items with the worst score were physical role (43.1 ± 43.1) and social area (50.3 ± 16.1). In the WHOQOL-BREF, the domain with the best score was en-vironment (65.1 ± 15.2), and the worst the social area (59.2 ± 22.7). Most of the caregivers were also women (57.1%), with a mild-moderate burden (23.8 ± 17.1) in the ZBI and a good QoL according to the CQLI (45.5 ± 22.9). On the SF-36 scale, the best score was obtained in the physical function domain (85.7 ± 20.1) and the worst in social function (53.2 ± 11.3), as well as in the WHOQOL-BREF scale (phys-ical health 70.5 ± 15.7 and social function 54.9 ± 20.7) CONCLUSIONS: This study reflects the importance of taking into account the patient's perception of their health, showing the limited value of objective scales alone when assessing the QoL of patients. In the case of family members, despite presenting a mild-moderate burden, the subjective scales show a QoL that could be improved. It is essential to improve public health rehabilitation programs and devel-op educational strategies for caregivers, to enhance QoL for both.

[eu] SARRERA: Iktusek erikortasun eta heriotza-tasa handia dute Espainian, eta COVID-19ak eragin duen pandemiaren ondorioz, are eragin handiagoa dute. Iktus bat jasan duten hiru pertsonatik bik albo ondorioren bat izaten dute, kasu askotan ezgaitasuna eragiten duena, beraz, haien senideen edota zaintzaileen osasun fisiko eta mentala ere larriki kaltetu daiteke. Osasun-erakundeek iktusaren garrantzia ulertu dute, baita haien ospitale-arretaren kalitatea hobetu ere. Hala ere, oraindik asko dago egiteko alta emanda dauden pazienteen jarraipenean. HELBURUAK: Araba eta Debagoienan iktus iskemikoa izan eta fase akutuan tronbektomia mekanikoaren bitartez tratatuak izan ziren pazienteen, eta haien senideen ondorio fisiko-psikologikoak aztertzea da, hauek duten larritasun maila eta eguneroko bizitzan dituzten kalteak behatuz. MATERIALAK ETA METODOAK: Iktusa duten pazienteen eta haien senideen bizi-kalitatea (BK) aztertzen duten artikuluen bilaketa bibliografikoa egin zen, gure galdetegiak diseinatzeko erreferentziatzat eduki ahal izateko. Galdetegi horiek datu soziodemografikoak, klinikoak eta eskala estandarizatuak (Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL), European Quality of Life 5 Dimensions (EQ-5D), SF-36, WHOQOL-BREF, Escala de Carga de Zarit (ECZ) eta Cargiver Quality of Life Index (CQLI)) aztertzen dituzte. Azkenik, galdetegiak osatzeko elkarrizketa klinikoa egin zitzaien parte-hartzaileei, eta datuen azterketa estatistikoa egin zen. EMAITZAK: Guztira 40 paziente eta 28 zaintzaile aztertu ziren. Paziente gehienak emakumeak ziren ( % 55) eta 72.7 ± 10.2 urteko batez besteko adina zuten. Gaixoek gaitasun funtzional ona izan arren (mRS 0-2), hobe zitekeen BK bat islatzen zuten. SS-QOL eskalaren batez besteko puntuazioa 182 ± 40.1 izan zen, eta EQ-5D eskalan, aldiz, 0.63 ± 0.42. SF-36 galdetegian, bi domeinuk bakarrik (rol emozionala 74.2 ± 42.4 eta mina 70.2 ± 22.6) gainditzen zituzten 70 puntuak, eta puntuaziorik txarrena zuten itemak rol fisikoa (43.1 ± 43.1) eta arlo soziala (50.3 ± 16.1) izan ziren. WHOQOL-BREFean puntuaziorik onena ingurune domeinua izan zen (65.1 ± 15.2), eta txarrena gizarte-arloa (59.2 ± 22.7). Zaintzaile gehienak emakumezkoak izan ziren (%57.1), karga arin-ertaina (ECZ= 23.8 ± 17,1) eta BK onarekin (CQLI= 45.5 ± 22.9). SF-36 eskalan, puntuaziorik onena funtzio fisikoaren domeinuan lortu zen (85.7 ± 20.1), eta okerrena arlo sozialean (53.2 ± 11.3), WHOQOL-BREF eskalan bezala (osasun fisikoa 70.5 ± 15.7, eta funtzio soziala 54.9 ± 20.7). ONDORIOAK: Azterketa honek islatzen du zeinen garrantzitsua den pazienteak bere osasunari buruz duen pertzepzioa kontuan hartzea, eta era berean, eskala objektiboek gaixoen BK baloratzeko orduan duten balio eskasa ere erakusten du. Zaintzaileen kasuan, lan-karga arin-ertain bat izan arren, eskala subjektiboek hobetu daitekeen BK bat adierazten dute. Funtsezkoa da osasun publikoaren errehabilitazio programak bultzatzea eta zaintzaileentzako hezkuntza-estrategiak prestatzea, gaixoaren eta haren familiaren BK hobetzeko asmoz.
