Objective To describe and compare patterns of physical activity among stroke survivors during their hospital stay and community living with early supported discharge. Design Observational cohort study of physical activity before and after early supported discharge. Setting UK National Health Service stroke units and participants’ homes. Participants Forty-one stroke survivors with a mean age of 69 (standard deviation 11) years, and a median Modified Rivermead Mobility Index of 33.5 [interquartile range (IQR) 25.8 to 35.3]. Main outcome measures The primary outcome measures were time spent in sitting/standing/walking and number of steps taken, as recorded by a physical activity monitor. Results There were statistical differences (P Conclusion Community living with early supported discharge promoted higher levels of physical activity in medically stable stroke survivors. The near-doubling of activity may serve as a guideline for what is achievable during stroke rehabilitation. |
