The outcome and predictors of stroke rehabilitation were studied prospectively in 96 patients (mean age 81.3 +/- 5.4 years) admitted to geriatric wards from a well-defined area over one year. Of these, 32 (33%) died (median survival 11 days), 52 (54%) returned home (median hospital stay 69 days) and 12 (13%) required long-term care (median hospital stay 164 days). Deaths and discharges showed a bimodal pattern; nearly 40% of the patients died or were discharged within 2 weeks of admission. Early death correlated with level of consciousness (P = 0.02), neurological deficit (P = 0.01) and prestroke Barthel scores (P = 0.04) on admission. Patients with right- rather than left-sided hemiparesis (P = 0.02), good motor power (P = 0.002) and without sensory deficit/inattention (P = 0.002) were discharged early. Discharge home was adversely affected by poor awareness of deficit (P = 0.02), hemianopia (P = 0.03) and incontinence (P = 0.02) assessed at 2 weeks. Stroke survivors with Barthel score < 6 and Mental Test Score < 4 at 2 weeks after stroke required long-term care.
对来自一个明确区域的老年病房收治的96例患者(平均年龄81.3±5.4岁)进行了为期一年的前瞻性中风康复结局及预测因素研究。其中,32例(33%)死亡(中位生存期11天),52例(54%)回家(中位住院时间69天),12例(13%)需要长期护理(中位住院时间164天)。死亡和出院呈现双峰模式;近40%的患者在入院后2周内死亡或出院。早期死亡与入院时的意识水平(P = 0.02)、神经功能缺损(P = 0.01)和中风前Barthel评分(P = 0.04)相关。右侧偏瘫而非左侧偏瘫的患者(P = 0.02)、运动能力良好的患者(P = 0.002)以及无感觉障碍/注意力不集中的患者(P = 0.002)较早出院。出院回家受到2周时评估的对功能缺损认知差(P = 0.02)、偏盲(P = 0.03)和失禁(P = 0.02)的不利影响。中风后2周时Barthel评分<6且精神测试评分<4的中风幸存者需要长期护理。
