Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Global Rating Scale (7-point): patient-rated overall change at discharge compared with admission (time point: discharge)	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
BBS, gait speed, FAC, FMA-UE/LE, ARAT, motor/cognitive FIM, MMSE, NIHSS, BRS, knee extensor strength, grip strength, mRS (time points: admission, monthly, discharge). Recovery trajectory classes (latent class growth analysis) and MIC estimates anchored to GRS.	—
