Approximately one-third of patients with stroke show depressive symptoms. The so-called post-stroke depression (PSD) has a negative influence on mortality as well as physical and mental conditions. The aim of this study was to analyse the association between PSD and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with stroke. The analysis was based on data of 326 patients from the Stroke Cohort Augsburg (SCHANA Study) collected after the stroke event by interview and three months later using a postal survey. Depressive symptoms were measured with the Patient-Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), subjective health status with the EuroQol 5D visual analogue scale (EQ-5D VAS), and HRQOL with the Stroke Impact Scale (SIS). Patients with depressive symptoms were compared to those without depressive symptoms in terms of sociodemographic characteristics and scores of the SIS and the EQ-5D VAS. Multiple linear regression models were calculated to investigate the association between PSD and subjective health status and HRQOL. Three months after the stroke, 17.8% of patients had depressive symptoms. Patients with PSD showed significantly worse SIS and EQ-5D VAS scores. In addition, an independent negative linear association between PSD and subjective health status and between PSD and all domains of SIS could be found. The study confirmed that PSD is common in patients with mild stroke and negatively related to all stroke-specific HRQOL domains. The results underline the importance of early screening for PSD in stroke patients since it may hinder a successful rehabilitation.
