Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinician-reported outcome (ClinRO) measures are emerging as useful contributors to assessments of treatment benefits. The objective of this study was to collect ClinRO measures of physical and cognitive impairments after convulsive status epilepticus (CSE) requiring intensive care unit admission. METHODS We conducted a post hoc analysis of the data from HYBERNATUS, a multicenter open-label controlled trial that randomized 270 critically ill patients with CSE requiring mechanical ventilation in 11 French intensive care units to therapeutic hypothermia (32-34 °C for 24 h) plus standard care or standard care alone. We included all patients who attended a day 90 in-person neurologist visit with measurement of the functional independence measure (FIM) score (range from 18 [total assistance] to 126 [total independence]), Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score (range 0-30), and Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) score (1, death; 2, vegetative state; 3, severe disability; 4, moderate disability; and 5, mild or no disability). These three scores were compared across groups defined by several patient and CSE characteristics. RESULTS Of 229 patients with GOS scores ≥ 3 on day 90 (male sex, 58.2%; median age, 56 years [47-67]), 67 (29%) attended an in-person neurologist visit. Twenty-nine (43%) patients had a previous history of epilepsy, and 16 (24%) patients had a primary brain insult. CSE was refractory in 22 (33%) patients. On day 90 after CSE onset, median FIM and MMSE scores were 121 (112-125) and 26.0 (24.0-28.8), respectively. The GOS score was 3 in 16 (33.8%) patients, 4 in 9 (13.4%) patients, and 5 in 42 (62.7%) patients. Worse GOS score values were significantly associated with worse FIM and MMSE scores. CONCLUSIONS In patients attending the in-person neurologist visit on day 90 after CSE onset, ClinRO measures indicated that the main impairments were cognitive. FIM and MMSE scores were associated with GOS scores. Further studies are needed to evaluate the possible impact of neuroprotective and rehabilitation strategies on disability and cognitive impairments in survivors of CSE. Clinical trial registration NCT01359332.

Hara R, Todayama N, Tabata T, Mukai T, Hatanaka Y, Watanabe M, Kuwazawa M, Hironaka S, Kawate N, Furuya J. Association between oral health status and functional independence measure on admission in convalescent hospitalized patients. BMC Oral Health 2024; 24:63. [PMID: 38195416 PMCID: PMC10777547 DOI: 10.1186/s12903-023-03667-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/14/2023] [Indexed: 01/11/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Oral health management has become increasingly important for acute inpatients. Older patients often require extended periods of medical care, and oral health management is necessary in the convalescent period following the acute period. During the convalescent period, oral health management remains unclear as convalescent hospitals have limited dental resources, and effective dental care must be provided if the objective of hospitalization is to improve life functions. This study aimed to clarify the relationship between daily functioning and oral health status at the time of admission to a convalescent hospital to aid in improving daily functioning in the convalescent period. METHODS We included patients admitted to the rehabilitation department of a specific convalescent hospital from January to December 2021. A total of 375 patients were included in the study, with complete data records. At admission, we gathered information from the medical records, including the patient's age, sex, primary disease, Charlson Comorbidity Index, Mini Nutritional Assessment Short-Form (MNA-SF), Functional Oral Intake Scale (FOIS), Functional Independence Measure (FIM), number of teeth, and Oral Health Assessment Tool (OHAT). Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS Ver. 27, with a significance level of 5%. RESULTS The mean age of the 375 participants (189 men and 186 women) was 75.0 ± 12.1 years (range, 42-97 years), and over 80% were > 65 years. About 30% of major diseases could be attributed to strokes and fractures, followed by spinal cord and spine diseases. In non-stroke patients, multiple regression analysis using FIM motor, FIM cognitive, and FIM and OHAT total scores as objective variables showed that higher total scores of MNA-SF, FOIS, and lower modified Rankin Scale and OHAT were significantly associated with better FIMs. Lower OHAT scores were significantly associated with lower FOIS and MNA-SF scores, male sex, having fewer teeth, and poor dietary patterns. CONCLUSIONS The convalescent period is an opportune time to provide intensive dental care due to the generally stable condition and extended hospital stay. Our results suggest that oral health management, such as dysphagia rehabilitation and denture treatment, is important for maintaining and improving independence, a key objective of convalescent rehabilitation, and malnutrition improvement.

Clarification of Factors Determining Discharge Destination Among Elderly Patients After Stroke With Low Levels of Independence in Activities of Daily Living: A Retrospective Study. Arch Rehabil Res Clin Transl 2022; 4:100226. [PMID: 36545528 PMCID: PMC9761264 DOI: 10.1016/j.arrct.2022.100226] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective To determine factors influencing discharge destination of elderly patients after stroke with low levels of independence in activities of daily living (ADL). Design Cross-sectional study. Setting A community-based public hospital in a rural area in Japan. Participants A total of 67 patients with low daily function among 205 elderly patients with stroke screened for eligibility (N=67). Interventions Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures Motor component of functional independence measure (M-FIM) at discharge and discharge destination-home or long-term care facility (LCF). Results Among the 205 eligible patients, 147 were discharged home and 58 were discharged to LCFs. Patients with an M-FIM score of ≤30 at discharge were defined as patients deemed difficult to discharge home because of low independence levels in ADL. Of the 147 patients discharged home, 24 (16.3%) had M-FIM scores of ≤30. Of the 58 patients discharged to LCFs, 43 (74.1%) had M-FIM scores of ≤30. Patients with an M-FIM score of ≤30 at discharge significantly tended to be discharged home if they obtained oral intake vs tube feeding as a nutritional method (P=.047) and higher cognitive component of FIM scores at discharge (P=.002). All six patients who lived alone among patients with an M-FIM score of ≤30 were discharged to LCFs. Two patients on tube feeding were discharged home. Conclusions Nutritional method, cognitive function at discharge, and the prestroke living situation with or without household caregivers are important factors of discharge among elderly patients after stroke with low independence levels in ADL. However, only a small number of severely disabled patients were successfully discharged home.

Abstract
Rehabilitation medicine has expanded the horizon of all medicine and brought about new human achievements. To facilitate continued advances in achievement, several changes are suggested in customary rehabilitation strategic goals, concepts, and practices. The main rehabilitation goals should focus on prolonged survival, contrary to the opinions of most authors on rehabilitation, and on achievement of maximum ability realization, rather than of independence or any given (including previous) level of functioning. Setting rehabilitation goals should benefit the patient, rather than the caregiver or the insurer. Training should focus on tasks that contribute to the patients' interests and desires, rather than on any task that reduces the burden of care. The main criterion for admission to a rehabilitation ward should be based on expected advantage in prolonging patient survival and maximizing ability realization.
