abstract: 'Background: Greater poststroke disability and U.S. employment policies
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
may disadvantage minority stroke survivors from returning to work. We
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
explored ethnic differences in return to work among Mexican Americans
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(MAs) and non-Hispanic whites (NHWs) working at the time of their
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stroke. Methods: Stroke patients were identified from the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
population-based BASIC (Brain Attack Surveillance in Corpus Christi)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
study from August 2011 to December 2013. Employment status was obtained
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
at baseline and 90-day interviews. Sequential logistic regression models
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
were built to assess ethnic differences in return to work after
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
accounting for the following: (1) age (<65 versus >= 65); (2) sex; (3)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
90-day National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS); and (4)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
education (lower than high school versus high school or higher).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Results: Of the 729 MA and NHW stroke survivors who completed the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
baseline interview, 197 (27\%) were working at the time of their stroke,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of which 125 (63\%) completed the 90-day outcome interview. Forty-nine
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(40\%) stroke survivors returned to work by 90 days. MAs were less
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
likely to return to work (OR = .45, 95\% CI .22-. 94) than NHWs. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ethnic difference became nonsignificant after adjusting for NIHSS (OR =
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.59, 95\% CI .24-1.44) and further attenuated after adjusting for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
education (OR = .85, 95\% CI .32-2.22). Conclusions: The majority of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stroke survivors did not return to work within 90 days of their stroke.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MA stroke survivors were less likely to return to work after stroke than
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NHW stroke survivors which was due to their greater neurological
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
deficits and lower educational attainment compared with that of NHW
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stroke survivors. Future work should focus on clinical and policy
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
efforts to reduce ethnic disparities in return to work.'
