Abstract
The aim of the present study was to describe the course and outcome of rehabilitation using a national recommended assessment program (AGAST). In our study 162 patients with stroke were included. Nearly all patients had improvement of activities of daily living (BartheI Index) and mobility (Tinetti Gait and Balance Score, Frenchay Arm Test). A similar trend was observed in patients with cognitive impairment and depression on admission. Ofthe different tests, the Barthel Index and mobility scores were shown to be important predictors of length of hospital stay. Further evaluation of the assessment instruments is needed to assess different aspects of quality of Life (selfrated well-being, satisfaction). To assess the efficiency of geriatric rehabilitation in patients with. stroke, it will be important to measure resource Consumption and to: evaluate the long-term results.
