NCT03720106

Brief Summary

The aim of this feasibility study is to investigate whether target-oriented treatment planning can be maintained in the rehabilitation of stroke patients using the existing classification (LIMOS) and evidence-based specialist treatment pathways. If the goal-oriented treatment planning cannot be adhered to, reasons for failure should be investigated.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Fidelity

    The deviations of the targeted therapy plan are checked weekly on Sunday by the sponsor-investigator. The deviations are documented in %. If there are some deviations, the reasons for the deviations are checked and analysed descriptively.

    up to 6 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Patient satisfaction: questionnaire of the RZS

    72 hours before discharge of the patient

  • Therapist satisfaction: PSSUQ

    72 hours before discharge of the patient

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Achievement of longterm goals

    72 hours after admission and 72 hours before discharge of the patient

  • Achievement of the overall rehabilitation goals

    72 hours after admission and 72 hours before discharge of the patient

Study Arms (1)

treatment arm

OTHER

In this arm the GOAL therapy plan is used.

Other: GOAL therapy plan

Interventions

The GOAL algorithm designs a therapy plan based on the LIMOS assessment, patient goals and subject-specific treatment pathways. The adherence of this therapy plan is examined.
