Health Care Disparities in Stroke Rehabilitation.

Stroke outcomes are influenced by factors such as education, lifestyle, and access to care, which determine the extent of functional recovery. Disparities in stroke rehabilitation research have traditionally included age, race/ethnicity, and sex, but other areas make up a gap in the literature. This article conducted a literature review of original research articles published between 2008 and 2022. The article also expands on research that highlights stroke disparities in risk factors, rehabilitative stroke care, language barriers, outcomes for stroke survivors, and interventions focused on rehabilitative stroke disparities.
