Abstract

<p>[Purpose] This study aimed to identify factors that discriminate the discharge destination of hospitalized stroke patients living with family members. [Participants and Methods] Fifty stroke patients living with family members who were hospitalized in a convalescence-rehabilitation ward and their family members were included in this study. The discharge destinations were classified as home and non-home, and logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors that discriminate the discharge destination. The cutoff values of the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) for discharge to home were calculated from the recipient’s movement characteristic curves. [Results] The discrimination factor for discharge was the FIM total score at admission. The cutoff value was 45 points. [Conclusion] The results suggest the possibility of predicting support required at discharge based on the FIM total score at the time of admission to a convalescent care unit.</p>
