The aim of this study was to investigate body weight changes and the correlation between body mass index and physical activity level in adult hemiplejic patients after stroke. The study included 70 adults suffered from stroke (with hemiplegia) at least 1 year ago and 70 healthy volunteered people who accompanied them. The social-demographic informations of the participants were recorded. Body weight chages of the patients were asked and recorded. According to the height and weight measurements, body mass index (BMI) was calculated. Physical activity level was measured with International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). The ratio of overweight/obese subjects were 34.3% and 30% in hemiplegic and healthy subjects, respectively. In the statistical analyses there was no statistically difference between the groups in respect to BMI (p>0.05). It was found that 55.7% of the hemiplegic patients have weight gain. In correlations analyses, there was negative correlations between BMI and physical activity level (IPAQ) (p<0.05). Physical activity level was lower in overweight/obese patients (p<0.05). In post-stroke chronic phase, patients with hemiplegia tent to gain weight. Decrease in physical activity level and sedantary lifestyle can result with negative weight change. Physical activity level should be increase in patients with hemiplagia after stroke.
