- Purpose.After stroke, impaired walking ability may affect activity and participation. The aim was to investigate whether self-reported activity and participation were associated with walking endurance late after stroke. Method.A non-randomised sample of 31 persons with a mean age of 59.7 years and time since stroke of 7-10 years was studied. Walking endurance was measured by the 6-minute walk test (6MWT). Self-reported activity and participation were measured by the Physical Activity Scale for the Elderly and the Stroke Impact Scale. Relationships were analysed with linear regression. Results.A regression model including activities of daily living and 6MWT explained 44%, mobility and 6MWT explained 25% and a model including physical activity level and 6MWT explained 21% of the variation in activity. Regarding participation, the explanatory level of the model of participation and 6MWT was 30%. Conclusions.Walking distance several years after stroke was partly associated with self-reported difficulties in activity and participation.
