Identification of Disability Subgroups for Patients After Ischemic Stroke

CONCLUSION: Five disability subgroups were identified for patients after ischemic stroke. The disability subgroups provide a common language for clinicians to organize the heterogeneity of disability after stroke.IMPACT: Using the disability subgroups, the multidisciplinary team might be able to improve the accuracy and efficiency of care decisions. The number of current rehabilitation interventions is indeterminable; these subgroups may help to guide clinicians in selecting the most beneficial interventions for patients based on subgroup membership.PMID:37172127 | DOI:10.1093/ptj/pzad001
