Predictive factors of upper limb motor recovery for stroke survivors admitted to a rehabilitation programme.

CONCLUSIONS: Initial motor and cognitive impairments may be associated with UE motor recovery in patients admitted to a rehabilitation programme.
CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT: Early assessments of motor and cognitive impairments after stroke would contribute to the prediction of UE motor recovery in patients admitted to a rehabilitation programme. The information would also help the stratification of patients for poststroke upper limb rehabilitation trials.
