To evaluate if home-based rehabilitation of inpatients improved outcome compared to standard care.
Interventional, randomised, safety/efficacy open-label trial.
University hospital stroke unit in collaboration with three municipalities.
Seventy-one eligible stroke patients (41 women) with focal neurological deficits hospitalised in a stroke unit for more than three days and in need of rehabilitation.
Thirty-eight patients were randomised to home-based rehabilitation during hospitalization and for up to four weeks after discharge to replace part of usual treatment and rehabilitation services. Thirty-three control patients received treatment and rehabilitation following usual guidelines for the treatment of stroke patients.
Ninety days post-stroke the modified Rankin Scale score was the primary endpoint. Other outcome measures were the modified Barthel-100 Index, Motor Assessment Scale, CT-50 Cognitive Test, EuroQol-5D, Body Mass Index and treatment-associated economy.
Thirty-one intervention and 30 control patients completed the study. Patients in the intervention group achieved better modified Rankin Scale score (Intervention median = 2, IQR = 2-3; Control median = 3, IQR = 2-4; P=0.04). EuroQol-5D quality of life median scores were improved in intervention patients (Intervention median = 0.77, IQR = 0.66-0.79; Control median = 0.66, IQR = 0.56 - 0.72; P=0.03). The total amount of home-based training in minutes highly correlated with mRS, Barthel, Motor Assessment Scale and EuroQol-5D™ scores (P-values ranging from P<0.00001 to P=0.01). Economical estimations of intervention costs were lower than total costs of standard treatment.
Early home-based rehabilitation reduced disability and increased quality of life. Compared to standard care, home-based stroke rehabilitation was more cost-effective.
评估与标准护理相比,住院患者的居家康复是否能改善预后。
干预性、随机、安全性/有效性开放标签试验。
与三个市政当局合作的大学医院卒中单元。
71例符合条件的卒中患者(41名女性),有局灶性神经功能缺损,在卒中单元住院超过三天且需要康复治疗。
38例患者被随机分配至住院期间及出院后长达四周进行居家康复,以替代部分常规治疗和康复服务。33例对照患者按照卒中患者常规治疗指南接受治疗和康复。
卒中后90天改良Rankin量表评分是主要终点。其他结局指标包括改良Barthel-100指数、运动评估量表、CT-50认知测试、欧洲五维度健康量表、体重指数以及治疗相关经济情况。
31例干预组患者和30例对照组患者完成了研究。干预组患者的改良Rankin量表评分更好(干预组中位数 = 2,四分位间距 = 2 - 3;对照组中位数 = 3,四分位间距 = 2 - 4;P = 0.04)。干预组患者的欧洲五维度健康量表生活质量中位数评分有所改善(干预组中位数 = 0.77,四分位间距 = 0.66 - 0.79;对照组中位数 = 0.66,四分位间距 = 0.56 - 0.72;P = 0.03)。以分钟计的居家训练总量与改良Rankin量表、Barthel指数、运动评估量表及欧洲五维度健康量表评分高度相关(P值范围从P < 0.00001至P = 0.01)。干预成本的经济估算低于标准治疗的总成本。
早期居家康复可减少残疾并提高生活质量。与标准护理相比,居家卒中康复更具成本效益。
