Abstract

Background: Stroke is considered a common and major problem in the field of 
healthcare because of its high prevalence and long-term disabilities. The main
aim of rehabilitation is to increase the participation of stroke patients in different
areas of life. The current study purposed to review the factors influencing the
participation of Iranian stroke patients in life areas.
Methods: Databases including ISI-Web of Knowledge, PubMed, Google Scholar,
and Scopus were searched using keywords such as occupational therapy,
participation, activities of daily living (ADL), instrumental activities of daily
living (IADLs), work, play, leisure, education, social participation, sleep, and
rest in combination with Iranian stroke patients and CVA. The quality of the
studies was evaluated using the PEDro scale. All papers reviewed in this study
concerned factors influencing the participation of Iranian stroke patients and
were published from 2000-2020.
Results: In total, 178 articles were identified as eligible for an Iranian stroke
study. Of these, 104 articles were discarded, and an additional 38 were removed
because of repetition and duplication. After careful evaluation of the papers, 34
were selected for final analysis. Most of the included studies concerned the ADL
area of participation (N=32), and the lowest number of articles were in the areas
of play (N=1), sleep/rest (N=2), and health management (N=3).
Conclusion: In Iran, researchers have not paid enough attention to the
participation of stroke patients in areas of life. Most studies focus mainly on
patient’s performance components, such as sensory and motor skills.
