NO
To estimate minimal important change (MIC) in routinely collected rehabilitation outcomes using a Global Rating Scale as an anchor, and to identify distinct recovery trajectory classes from monthly longitudinal data during inpatient convalescent rehabilitation, examining clinical characteristics and therapy-related factors (e.g., therapy time) associated with each class.
Others
Estimation of MIC and identification of recovery trajectory classes using observational registry data
Exploratory
Global Rating Scale (7-point): patient-rated overall change at discharge compared with admission (time point: discharge)
BBS, gait speed, FAC, FMA-UE/LE, ARAT, motor/cognitive FIM, MMSE, NIHSS, BRS, knee extensor strength, grip strength, mRS (time points: admission, monthly, discharge). Recovery trajectory classes (latent class growth analysis) and MIC estimates anchored to GRS.

This is a single-center prospective observational cohort registry. Consecutive stroke patients admitted to a convalescent rehabilitation ward between [May/2026] and [March/2029] will be included. Routine outcomes are collected at admission, monthly during hospitalization, and at discharge. A 7-point Global Rating Scale at discharge will be used as an anchor to estimate MIC for each outcome. Recovery trajectory classes will be identified using latent class growth analysis, and associations with baseline characteristics and therapy time will be examined. An opt-out approach will be used.
