Factors associated with post-acute functional status and discharge dispositions in individuals with spinal cord injury.

CONCLUSIONS: The regression models developed in this study were able to better classify discharge destinations compared to the functional outcomes at discharge from the acute hospital. Further research is necessary to determine how these factors and their associations vary nationally across the US, which have the potential to inform trauma and acute care post-SCI.
