About

The RCS is a tool that can assess the need for complex rehabilitation and objectively indicate that a patient may have difficulty functioning well at home or in the community if their medical needs are still high. Among rehabilitation patients, there are still patients with complex needs, even though they have maximized rehabilitation potential. Moreover, RCS can also be useful in highlighting cases of patients becoming seriously ill during the rehabilitation process due to an acute illness such as sepsis, which significantly limits treatment time. This information can be emphasized using RCS data when requesting extended or increased rehabilitation support.

Full description

The Rehabilitation Complexity Scale (RCS) is similarly designed to provide a simple measure of the complexity of rehabilitation needs and/or interventions; This can be implemented in a timely manner and takes into account essential care, specialist nursing, therapy and medical interventions. Clauses in the RCS state that care, nursing, therapy and medical input needs are the primary 'causes' of case complexity and (together with length of stay) will ultimately affect a particular individual. Compliance in healthcare processes is a very current issue, with particular emphasis on the individualization of rehabilitation settings. Compliance has been described by WHO as a complex issue with various dimensions and definitions, and these vary between countries. However, most definitions of appropriateness address a set of basic requirements: that care be effective (based on valid evidence); be efficient (cost-effective); and is consistent with the ethical principles and preferences of the individual, society or society concerned. It is thought that RCS will meet these needs.The research population will be 110 patients selected from the patients hospitalized in the palliative unit of Istanbul Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Hospital.The sample size was determined as 110. MEDCALC program was used in the analysis. Linear regression analysis was performed. Cronbach-alpha was calculated as 97%.Stabil subacute stroke patients will be included in the study. Barthel, FIM, RCS-E tools will be used in the study.
