Overview

Cohort study evaluates goal achievement in stroke rehabilitation, highlighting challenges in municipal settings.

Key Points

  • Evaluate goal achievement after stroke rehabilitation and identify factors influencing success.
  • Included 117 patients with stroke referred for municipal rehabilitation after hospitalization.
  • Therapists categorized goal achievement status into four categories: achieved, partly achieved, not achieved, or not reported.
  • Analyzed associations between patient characteristics and goal achievement status.
  • 30.8% of patients achieved their goals, 45.3% achieved them partly, and 14.5% did not achieve any goals.
  • Lower Chair Stand Test scores were linked to failure in achieving goals (p < 0.05).
  • High baseline scores on the Berg Balance Scale were associated with successful goal achievement.
