What this Trial Is About
Researchers are investigating the factors that influence the length of hospital stay for patients undergoing stroke rehabilitation. The focus is on the stage called "plateau," a period where functional recovery pauses but does not stop completely. Identifying this stage helps plan when to interrupt treatment and discharge patients. The study will determine the average hospital stay duration for patients with hemiplegia and categorize them into groups based on whether their stay is shorter or longer than the average. This observational study divides participants into two groups depending on their hospital stay length compared to the average. It observes patients hospitalized due to stroke-related hemiplegia and tracks their rehabilitation progress. The study does not involve experimental treatments but focuses on evaluating hospital stay patterns and recovery stages. Participants will be assessed using several scales, including the Functional Independence Scale, Berg Scale, Mini Mental State Test, and Beck Depression Scale at the start of inpatient rehabilitation and before discharge. These assessments help measure functional recovery and mental status during rehabilitation. The study will monitor patients throughout their hospital stay until discharge, with total participation lasting until then.
