277 Frailty and Early Supported Discharge (ESD) Post-Stroke: Are Frail Patients Referred to ESD and is Frailty Associated with Rehabilitation Outcomes?
ConclusionFrail patients are not routinely referred for ESD post-stroke. Patients who are pre-frail or frail make similar improvements with ESD compared to non-frail patient in functional independence but not quality of life. Comparable levels of physiotherapy and occupational therapy are provided but frail patients require less SLT. Further research is needed to ascertain if frail patients are appropriate for ESD.
