The Italian Society of Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine has published a minimal assessment protocol for stroke patients1 (PMIC2020) to share the evaluation of stroke rehabilitation needs and outcomes at any time of the rehabilitation pathway, as grounds for a National Stroke Rehabilitation Registry (SRR).~The STRATEGY multicentric study aims to verify the feasibility of implementing a PMIC2020-based SRR in a routine clinical setting, and develop data-driven prognosis prediction models.~Demographic, functional and clinical variables will be collected at the admission and the discharge of the patient; in addition, two telephone follow-ups (three months and six months from the event) will be carried out~The study will involve several rehabilitation centers of the Don Gnocchi Foundation, Italy
Pathology registers are scientific research tools for the development of epidemiological and clinical studies and health planning, which allows access to useful elements for planning adequate health services. The Registry collects demographic, clinical and functional data of stroke patients and arises from the need to order and update this information for epidemiological and research purposes, for a better knowledge of this pathology from a rehabilitation point of view and to accelerate the development of new treatments.
