Cost and cost-effectiveness of early inpatient rehabilitation after stroke varies with initial disability: the Czech Republic perspective

Abstract: The purpose of this prospective study was to determine whether the cost and cost-effectiveness of early rehabilitation after stroke are associated with the degree of initial disability. The data for cost calculations were collected by the bottom-up (micro-costing) method alongside the standard inpatient care. The total sample included 87 patients who were transferred from acute care to early rehabilitation unit of three participating stroke centers at the median time poststroke of 11 days (range 4–69 days).

“…The average patient category in FNO amounted to 2. The study proved (Angerova et al, 2020) that the scores of the Barthel Index and the motor part of FIM are dependent on the categories, which is not true for the Extended Barthel Index or cognitive part of FIM. Generally, the measures based on motor skills are much more sensitive, while the cognitive results only had a small effect on the final state of patients.…”

“…The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the General University Hospital in Prague on 15th December 2016. The detailed design of the study was published together with its first results (Angerova et al, 2020;2021). The study had a pragmatic design and the individual hospitals followed their standard clinical management procedures and processes.…”

“…Another important question was to what extent are BI and FIM interchangeable. This question was discussed in our previous article (Angerova et al, 2020). The tests, if properly conducted, proved a relatively good correlation in the motor component.…”

“…The differences can be found in all studied aspects of the early rehabilitation of patients after stroke, i.e., in costs, clinical outcomes, as well as in cost effectiveness ratios. This paper focused on the cost features; a study of outcomes and utilities was published elsewhere including a detailed discussion (30).…”
