Determining the MCID for the TOPICS-SF and PROMIS-10 in Older Patients That Suffered an Ischemic Stroke or TIA
Determining the Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) for the TOPICS-SF and PROMIS-10 in Older Patients That Suffered an Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA), Using an Anchor-based Approach

Conditions
Summary
Patient-related outcome measures (PROMs) play a crucial role in assessing patient outcomes in healthcare. Two of these PROMs are the The Older Persons and Informal Caregivers Survey Short Form (TOPICS-SF) and Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Global Health Short Form (PROMIS-10). The investigators aim to determine the Minimal Clinically Important Difference (MCID) for the TOPICS-SF and PROMIS-10 in older people that suffered an ischemic stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA), using an anchor-based method.

Interventions
There will be no intervention. The participants will be asked to fill in questionnaires at two time points: the first time will be after informed consent when they are at the hospital for diagnostic evaluation of the TIA or ischemic stroke, and the second time will be 4 weeks later, with a window of 2 weeks (allowing a range of 2-6 weeks). The second time point is chosen because the investigators suspect that by then, around 50% will be in the "improved" group. At the first time point, the participants will be asked to fill in the PROMIS-10 and element D and E of the TOPICS-SF - which are the elements used to determine the functional limitations and the psychological wellbeing. At the second time point, the participants will be asked to answer the same questions, as well as three additional anchor questions.
