Determinants of the Length of Stay in Stroke Patients

Abstract: ObjectivesThe study objective was to identify the factors that influence the length of stay (LOS) in hospital for stroke patients and to provide data for managing hospital costs by managing the LOS.MethodsThis study used data from the Discharge Injury Survey of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which included 17,364 cases from 2005 to 2008.ResultThe LOS for stroke, cerebral infarction, intracerebral hemorrhage, and subarachnoid hemorrhage was 18.6, 15.0, 28.9, and 25.3 days, respectively.

“…Penelitian serupa di unit stroke RS Bethesda Yogyakarta tahun 2012 menyebutkan bahwa lama hari rawat pasien stroke tanpa komplikasi rata-rata 5,8 hari dan dengan komplikasi rata-rata 11,4 hari dan penelitian di rumah sakit tersier di Malaysia <7 hari (6,4 hari) yaitu 66,6% 6 . Lamanya hari dirawat dipengaruhi banyak hal diantaranya tingkat keparahan stroke, komorbid dan komplikasi yang menyertai 6 , adanya tindakan operasi 22 , ketepatan terapi yang diberikan sesuai dengan outcome yang diharapkan dan hasil pemeriksaan penunjang lainnya yang mendukung dalam penegakan diagnosa.…”

“…This discrepancy in findings is most probably due to difficulties in measuring AHI in patients with severe brainstem stroke and differences in patient characteristics between studies. In our study, hemorrhagic stroke patients tended to show a longer period of total hospitalization than ischemic stroke patients, which could be attributed to a comparatively longer period of acute care required for hemorrhagic stroke patients [ 29 ]. While hemorrhagic stroke patients were hospitalized for 5 days more than ischemic stroke patients before transfer to the department of rehabilitation medicine, the length of stay in the rehabilitation unit did not show a significant difference.…”

“…[ 5 ] The presence of ataxia may increase LOS, [ 6 ] dysphagia, [ 7 ] as well as aphasia, [ 8 ] diabetes, [ 9 ] obesity, [ 10 ] and hypertension. [ 11 ] Besides, recurrent stroke patients have been previously reported requiring longer LOS. [ 12 ]…”
