| Popis: | Introduction: Functional outcomes and length of stay (LOS) are common outcome measures in stroke patients at Inpatient Rehabilitation Facilities (IRF). Aim: To examine trends in functional outcomes among patients with hemorrhagic versus ischemic stroke in IRF. Methods: Using a prospectively collected database of stroke patients admitted in our health system of 5 IRFs in Houston, we reviewed patients with either ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke between 1/18 to 6/19. The main outcome measure was the FIM scores. The relationship between LOS and FIM score improvement were analyzed using a third order polynomial regression model. Results: Among 88 patients, 43% were female and 60% had an ischemic stroke. The median LOS was 21 days (IQR14, 26) for all patients; 22 (IQR16, 30) in patients with hemorrhagic stroke; 20.5 (IQR14, 25) in patients with ischemic stroke (P: 0.24). Based on change in FIM, stroke patients benefited the most from IRF in the first 17 days (P Conclusion: Stroke patients in our IRF network benefit the most on FIM in the first 17 days. Further studies are needed to identify factors that could maximize functional gains in IRF. |
