OT and Physical Therapy Utilization and Discharge Disposition for Ischemic Stroke Patients Differ among Functional Subgroups

Abstract Date Presented 04/01/2022 Functional impairments after stroke are heterogeneous. Standardized clinical assessments may not effectively capture the different functional subgroups of individuals after stroke. Using latent class analysis, five functional subgroups were identified within a sample of individuals hospitalized for ischemic stroke. The following outcomes varied across the functional subgroups: OT utilization, physical therapy utilization, and discharge disposition.
