Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
During hospitalization, patients will be assessed for ambulation independence every 2 weeks from onset using the Functional Ambulation Categories. For patients who are not able to walk outdoors independently at discharge, FAC will be assessed every 4 weeks from onset after discharge. The study period will be up to 24 weeks after onset. Once the patient is ambulatory, the gait independence survey will be terminated.	—
