Who is studied
The study population consists of adult individuals with a diagnosis of stroke and resulting hemiparesis, referred from acute care hospitals to inpatient rehabilitation units. Participants are in the subacute phase of stroke recovery and present with residual motor impairment affecting upper and/or lower limb function, as well as limitations in activities of daily living. Patients are consecutively recruited from specialized neurorehabilitation centers providing intensive, multidisciplinary rehabilitation programs. The population reflects a typical clinical sample of individuals undergoing inpatient rehabilitation after stroke, with a wide range of motor impairment severity and functional limitations.
