Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Edge weights (regularised partial correlations) and node strength centrality in a partial correlation network estimated from the 7-point ordinal discharge FIM cognitive item ratings (comprehension, expression, social interaction, problem solving, and memory). | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Attainment rates using a clinically interpretable threshold (FIM>=5) and corrected item-total correlations based on dichotomised item scores for item analysis. As a sensitivity analysis, we compare the primary ordinal-based network with a network estimated using Pearson correlations treating item scores as approximately continuous. | — |
