Description

<p>Objective:To clarify the effect of exclusion items on the KRW achievement index (KRW-AI) in the outcome evaluation of a convalescent rehabilitation ward.</p><p>Methods:The subjects were 812 inpatients in a convalescent rehabilitation ward. The objective variable was the KRW-AI of 40 or less, and the explanatory variables were the items excluded from the KRW-AI and their combination for a total of eight categories, such as (1) low motor FIM, (2) high motor FIM, (3) low cognitive FIM, (4) elderly, (5) (1)+(3), (6) (1)+(4), (7) (3)+(4), (8) (1)+(3)+(4). The adjusted variables were sex, rehabilitation calculation category, and time from onset to admission to the ward. Poisson regression analysis was performed. The Incidence Rate Ratio (IRR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated.</p><p>Results:Five of the eight exclusion categories were significantly associated with low-KRW-AI scores. The highest IRR was 2.29 (95% CI:1.41-3.69, p<0.001) for (2).</p><p>Conclusion:High motor FIM are associated with a higher relative risk of falling below the KRW-AI of 40. Conversely, being older and the presence of cognitive disorder did not interfere with low-KRW-AI scores.</p>
