NCT03795948

Brief Summary

The presented study is an explorative prospective study. First, it focusses on the longitudinal analysis of outcome quality in stroke treatment (12 months). Particularly, it addresses patient reported quality of life after inpatient stroke treatment and influencing factors. Second, it focusses on the feasibility and acceptance of a standard set of measures capturing outcome quality of medical care in stroke patients.

Study Arms (1)

PROM Evaluation for stroke patients

OTHER

Patient will be enrolled and PROMs will be collected.

Other: PROMs

Interventions

PROMsOTHER

Introduction and assessment of the ICHOM standard set consisting of demographic and medical data as well as questionnaires filled in by patients, shortly after admission to the stroke unit, at discharge, and at 90 and 360 days after stroke. Specifically the intervention includes an assembly of clinical records, in particular records of complications, recurrence of disease and mortality. Further patients will be required to complete a questionnaire assessing their situation in terms of housing and symptom burden as well as their self-perceived autonomy and quality of life. Telephone assessments will be administered to support patients if necessary and validate their responses.
