Home-Time Is a Feasible and Valid Stroke Outcome Measure in National Datasets

Background and Purpose- Home-time (HT) is a stroke outcome measure based on time spent at home after stroke. We hypothesized that HT assessment would be feasible and valid using national data. Methods- We linked the Scottish Stroke Care Audit to routine healthcare data and calculated 90-day HT for all strokes, 2005 to 2017. We described prognostic validity (Spearman rank correlation) of HT to baseline factors. Results- We were able to calculate...
