About

The link between post-stroke pathways and patient sequelae have not yet been clearly defined. The main purpose is to identify the post-stroke life pathways components associated with sequalae at 3 months and 1 year after the acute stroke episode.

Full description

Stroke is a serious health event, involving the entire health care system and generating considerable socioeconomic weight for society. Knowledge of the components, the diversity and the scalability of post-stroke life pathways is currently not sufficient. Moreover the link between post-stroke pathways and patient sequelae have not yet been clearly defined.

The main purpose is to identify the post-stroke life pathways components associated with sequalae at 3 months and 1 year after the acute stroke episode. The secondary objectives are: 1) To define a typology of the life pathways of stroke patients, , 2) To analyze the social and geographical inequalities in the management of stroke, 4) To estimate the cost of the pathway elements of stroke management; 5) Measure the sequelae of stroke patients at three months and one year after the acute episode.

The design is a prospective multicenter cohort study with a follow up to 1 year after the acute episode, managed in several hospitals in the Aquitaine region (France).

Enrollment: 1,138 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18+ years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers
