Objective: This study aimed to determine the predictors of discharge to acute care after inpatient rehabilitation in severely affected stroke patients.
Design: This was a retrospective study using data from the Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation (UDSMR) between 2008 and 2009. The main outcome variable was discharge location, which included discharge to acute care or discharge to the community after inpatient rehabilitation.
Objective: To examine the influence of diabetes on length of stay (LOS), functional status, and discharge setting in individuals with hip fracture.
Research Design And Methods: This work included secondary analyses of 79,526 individuals from 915 rehabilitation facilities in the U.S.
Objective: The aim of this study was to provide benchmarking information for a large national sample of patients receiving inpatient rehabilitation because of a hip fracture.
Design: A secondary data analysis of records from 893 medical rehabilitation facilities located in the United States that contributed information to the Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation from January 2000 through December 2007 was performed. Variables analyzed included demographic information (age, sex, marital status, race/ethnicity, prehospital living setting, and discharge setting), hospitalization information (length of stay, program interruptions, payer, onset date, rehabilitation impairment group, International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, codes for admitting diagnosis, comorbidities), and Functional Status Information (FIM instrument ratings at admission and discharge, FIM efficiency, and FIM gain).
Objective: To provide benchmarking information from a large national sample of patients receiving inpatient rehabilitation after lower limb joint replacement.
Design: Secondary data analysis from 893 medical rehabilitation facilities located in the United States that contributed information to the Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation from January 2000 through December 2007. Variables analyzed included demographic information (age, sex, marital status, race/ethnicity, prehospital living setting, discharge setting), hospitalization information (length of stay, program interruptions, payer, onset date, rehabilitation impairment group, International Classification of Diseases, 9th revision codes for admitting diagnosis, comorbidities), and functional status information (FIM instrument ["FIM"] ratings at admission and discharge, FIM efficiency, FIM gain).
Objective: To provide benchmarking information for a large national sample of patients receiving inpatient rehabilitation after traumatic brain injury.
Design: Secondary data analysis from 893 medical rehabilitation facilities located in the United States that contributed information to the Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation from January 2000 through December 2007. Variables analyzed included demographic information (age, sex, marital status, race or ethnicity, prehospital living setting, and discharge setting), hospitalization information (length of stay, program interruptions, payer, onset date, rehabilitation impairment group, Internation Classification of Diseases-9th revision codes for admitting diagnosis, and co-morbidities), and functional status information (FIM instrument [FIM] ratings at admission and discharge, FIM efficiency, FIM gain).
