Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Stroke
Registration Number
NCT04976894
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

Korean Stroke Cohort for functioning and rehabilitation (KOSCO)-II is a large, multi-centre prospective cohort study for all acute first-ever stroke patients admitted to participating hospitals in nine distinct areas of Korea. This study is designed as a 10-year, longitudinal follow-up investigating the residual disabilities, activity limitations, and quality of life issues arising in patients suffering from first-ever stroke as previous similar stroke cohort with KOSCO. The main objectives of this study are to identify and compare the factors that influence residual disability and long-term quality of life in first-ever acute stroke patients with KOSCO. The secondary objectives of this study are to determine and compare the risk of mortality and recurrent vascular events in first-ever acute stroke patients with KOSCO. Investigators will investigate longitudinal health behaviors and patterns of healthcare utilization, including stroke rehabilitation care. Investigators will also investigate the long-term health status, mood, and quality of life in stroke patient caregivers. In addition, investigators will identify baseline and ongoing characteristics that are associated with secondary outcomes.

Measurement for disability. Range of total score 0 to 6. 0 is no disability at all and 6 is death. Therefore, greater value means worse functional status
