Stroke Unit Care Combined With Early Supported Discharge Improves 5-Year Outcome
Background and Purpose—Early supported discharge (ESD) seems to be a promising alternative to conventional follow-up care after acute stroke. We have previously shown that stroke unit care combined with ESD has beneficial effects on functional outcome and the use of resources for up to 1 year. The aim of this trial was to evaluate outcome after 5 years. Methods—We performed a randomized control...

متن کاملStroke unit care combined with early supported discharge: long-term follow-up of a randomized controlled trial.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Early supported discharge from a stroke unit reduces the length of hospital stay. Evidence of a benefit for the patients is still unknown. The aim of this trial was to evaluate the long-term effects of an extended stroke unit service (ESUS), characterized by early supported discharge. The short-term effects were published previously. METHODS We performed a randomized co...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness of stroke unit care followed by early supported discharge.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Stroke places a significant burden on the economy in England and Wales with the overall societal costs estimated at pound7 billion per annum. There is evidence that both stroke units (SUs) and early supported discharge (ESD) are effective in treating patients with stroke. This study assesses the cost-effectiveness of the combination of these 2 strategies and compares it w...
متن کاملA consensus on stroke: early supported discharge.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Research evidence supporting Early Supported Discharge (ESD) services has been summarized in a Cochrane Systematic Review. Trials have shown that ESD can reduce long-term dependency and admission to institutional care and reduce the length of hospital stay. No adverse impact on the mood or well-being of patients or carers has been reported. With the implementation of many...
