Inpatient Rehabilitation for Acute Presentations of Motor Functional Neurological Disorder: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Objective: Patients with functional neurological disorder involving the motor system (eg, functional weakness, functional gait) may acutely present to the hospital for new-onset symptoms. For some, symptoms may remain severe enough at the time of hospital discharge to qualify for an inpatient rehabilitation facility stay.

Design: Data were extracted via retrospective chart review on functional neurological disorder patients ( N = 22) admitted to an inpatient rehabilitation facility between September 2019 and May 2022.
