Abstract

Purposes<br> The purposes of this study were to analyze the relationship between the discharge destinations of patients with cerebrovascular diseases (CVD) in our convalescent rehabilitation ward and their levels of activities of daily living (ADL), and also to consider the factors causing those patients difficulties upon discharge. <br>Methods<br> The subjects were 114 CVD patients in our Convalescent Rehabilitation Ward. <br> The investigation was conducted to examine their ADL score, both at hospitalization and at discharge, and to analyze the relationship between changes in their ADL scores and their discharge destinations. <br>Discussion<br> It was suggested that reduction of the ADL score from above 8 points at hospitalization, to less than 4 at discharge, contributed to improvement of the rate of discharge to the patients' own homes, and that four items in the ADL assessment scale, such as ‘transfer’, ‘ability to communicate’, ‘locomotion’ and ‘oral care’, had an effect on their discharge destinations.
