Enhancing Resilience Among Patients With Stroke: Implementation of High Intensity Home-based Rehabilitation
Sponsor: Duke University
Summary
The goal of this observational study is to test whether a model of high-intensity home-based rehabilitation (HIHR) helps patients get good outcomes after treatment for a stroke at Duke University Hospital. The main question it aims to answer is: Do patients who receive HIHR services after their stroke recover their function at least as well as patients who discharge to an inpatient rehabilitation facility? Participants will not be assigned to any group. Rather, patients who choose to discharge from the hospital to their home and receive HIHR services after their stroke will be enrolled in the study so that researchers can compare their outcomes to those for other patients who instead discharged to an inpatient rehabilitation facility.

Interventions
high intensity home-based rehabilitation
Whereas standard home healthcare would include 1-3 visits per week of therapy services after a stroke, the HIHR intervention will include at least therapy visits per week. Between occupational, physical, and speech therapy, the frequency for each will match individual patient needs based on the type and severity of their stroke-related deficits.
