Does increased physical activity improve functional recovery in adults after acute stroke?
Increased physical activity in the subacute phase of stroke is associated with improved functional recovery at 6 months.
Results of this study suggest that increased physical activity was associated with functional recovery 6 months after stroke. Interventions targeting individuals with decreasing physical activity in the subacute phase of stroke may play a role in improved functional outcomes.
Buvarp et al. (Mon,) studied this question.
