Guidelines for Adult Stroke Rehabilitation and Recovery

Organization of Poststroke Rehabilitation Care

Class I
"1." It is recommended that stroke patients who are candidates for postacute rehabilitation receive organized, coordinated, interprofessional care(Level of Evidence:A ) "
"2." It is recommended that stroke survivors who qualify for and have access to IRF care receive treatment in an IRF in preference to a SNF. (Level of Evidence:B ) "
"3." Organized community-based and coordinated interprofessional rehabilitation care is recommended in the outpatient or home-based settings. (Level of Evidence:C ) "
Class IIb
"1."ESD services may be reasonable for people with mild to moderate disability.(Level of Evidence:B ) "

Rehabilitation

Interventions in the Inpatient Hospital Setting

Class I
"1." It is recommended that early rehabilitation for hospitalized stroke patients be provided in environments with organized, interprofessional stroke care. (Level of Evidence:A ) "
"2." It is recommended that stroke survivors receive rehabilitation at an intensity commensurate with anticipated benefit and tolerance (Level of Evidence:B ) "
Class III
"1." High-dose, very early mobilization within 24 hours of stroke onset can reduce the odds of a favorable outcome at 3 months and is not recommended.. (Level of Evidence:A ) "

Prevention of Skin Breakdown and Contractures

Class I
"1." During hospitalization and inpatient rehabilitation, regular skin assessments are recommended with objective scales of risk such as the Braden scale (Level of Evidence:C ) "
"2." It is recommended to minimize or eliminate skin friction, to minimize skin pressure, to provide appropriate support surfaces, to avoid excessive moisture, and to maintain adequate nutrition and hydration to prevent skin breakdown. Regular turning, good skin hygiene, and use of specialized mattresses, wheelchair

cushions, and seating are recommended until mobility returns. (Level of Evidence:C ) "

"3." Patients, staff, and caregivers should be educated about the prevention of skin breakdown. (Level of Evidence:C ) "
Class IIa
"1."Positioning of hemiplegic shoulder in maximum external rotation while the patient is either sitting or in bed for 30 minutes daily is probably indicated..(Level of Evidence:B ) "
Class IIb
"1." Resting hand/wrist splints, along with regular stretching and spasticity management in patients lacking active hand movement, may be considered..(Level of Evidence:C ) "
"2." Use of serial casting or static adjustable splints may be considered to reduce mild to moderate elbow and wrist contractures.(Level of Evidence:C ) "
"3." Surgical release of brachialis, brachioradialis, and biceps muscles may be considered for substantial elbow contractures and associated pain.(Level of Evidence:B ) "
"4." Resting ankle splints used at night and during assisted standing may be considered for prevention of ankle contracture in the hemiplegic limb..(Level of Evidence:B ) "

Prevention of DVT

Class I
"1." In ischemic stroke, prophylactic-dose subcutaneous heparin (UFH or LMWH) should be used for the duration of the acute and rehabilitation hospital stay or until the stroke survivor regains mobility. (Level of Evidence:A ) "
Class IIa
"1." In ischemic stroke, it is reasonable to use prophylactic-dose LMWH over prophylactic dose UFH for prevention of DVT.(Level of Evidence:A ) "
Class IIb
"1." In ischemic stroke, it may be reasonable to use intermittent pneumatic compression over no prophylaxis during the acute hospitalization.(Level of Evidence:B ) "
"2." In ICH, it may be reasonable to use prophylactic-dose subcutaneous heparin (UFH or LMWH) started between days 2 and 4 over no prophylaxis..(Level of Evidence:C ) "
"3." In ICH, it may be reasonable to use prophylactic dose LMWH over prophylactic-dose UFH.(Level of Evidence:C ) "
"4." In ICH, it may be reasonable to use intermittent pneumatic compression devices over no prophylaxis.(Level of Evidence:C ) "
Class III
"1." In ischemic stroke, it is not useful to use elastic compression stockings. (Level of Evidence:B ) "
"2." In ICH, it is not useful to use elastic compression stockings.(Level of Evidence:C ) "

Treatment of Bowel and Bladder Incontinence

Class I
"1." Assessment of bladder function in acutely hospitalized stroke patients is recommended. A history of urological issues before stroke should be obtained. (Level of Evidence:B ) "
"2." Assessment of urinary retention through bladder scanning or intermittent catheterizations after voiding while recording volumes is recommended for patients

with urinary incontinence or retention. (Level of Evidence:B )

"Removal of the Foley catheter (if any) within 24 hours after admission for acute stroke is recommended.(Level of Evidence:B )
Class IIa
"1." Assessment of cognitive awareness of need to void or having voided is reasonable.(Level of Evidence:B ) "
"2." It is reasonable to use the following treatment interventions to improve bladder incontinence in stroke patients:

a) Prompted voiding

b) Pelvic floor muscle training (after discharge home.(Level of Evidence:B ) "

Class IIb
"1." It may be reasonable to assess prior bowel function in acutely hospitalized stroke patients and include the following.(Level of Evidence:C) "

a) Stool consistency, frequency, and timing (before stroke)

b) Bowel care practices before stroke
