Relation between health utility score and physical activity in community-dwelling ambulatory patients with stroke: a preliminary cross-sectional study.

Conclusions The present study showed that the health utility score correlated significantly with objective physical activity in community-dwelling ambulatory patients with stroke. The more the patients with stroke walked, the higher their health utility score was. Further studies should assess other domains of health-related quality of life to comprehensively verify this relationship. PMID: 30040601 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
