The incidence of stroke has increased, and most stroke survivors are left with some degree of residual disability, which places a significant burden on patients, caregivers, and the society. Development of structured stroke care requires long-term assessment of functional outcomes to identify the factors that influence residual disability and quality of life in stroke survivors.
The Korean Stroke Cohort for Functioning and Rehabilitation (KOSCO) is a multi-center, prospective, longitudinal study conducted to investigate the survival and recurrence rates, functional status, mood, and quality of life of patients who have suffered ischemic or hemorrhagic strokes based on face-to-face assessments and interviews. In this study, we also conducted rehabilitation intervention studies to investigate the effects of early intensive rehabilitation therapies on long-term functional outcomes, and analyzed the cost-effectiveness of early intensive rehabilitation therapy in first-ever stroke patients.
Of the 10,636 patients who had suffered their first-ever stroke and who were admitted to 9 hospitals in Korea between August 2012 and May 2015, 7,858 patients agreed to participate in the follow-up study and were enrolled in the 1st Korean Stroke Cohort. The 2nd Korean Stroke Cohort conducted beteween January and December 2020 and included 2,413 patients who agreed to participate in the follow-up study out of the 4,065 patients examined. The clinical and early treatment characteristics of stroke patients differed between the 1st and 2nd Korean Stroke Cohorts, reflecting socio-environmental changes such as aging and medical insurance coverage of stroke care.
Patients in the 2nd Korean Stroke Cohort patients had a significantly higher mean age, higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome and higher previous functional level than those in the 1st Korean Stroke Cohort. In addition the rate of admission to stroke unit increased among patients in the 2nd Korean Stroke Cohort, and the number of patients who received interventional and rehabilitation treatment during the initial hospital reatment increased. Overall, functional outcomes at six months after stroke onset were better in the 2nd Korean Stroke Cohort. In addition, a multiple regression analysis showed that intensive rehabilitation treatment and pneumonia during the initial hospitalization were significant modifiable factors at three months after stroke onset.
These results provide useful information for establishing a comprehensive and structured stroke care system and national policy development for better management of stroke patients.

Abstract

The incidence of stroke has increased, and most stroke survivors are left with some degree of residual disability, which places a significant burden on patients, caregivers, and the society. Development of structured stroke care requires long-term assessment of functional outcomes to identify the factors that influence residual disability and quality of life in stroke survivors.
The Korean Stroke Cohort for Functioning and Rehabilitation (KOSCO) is a multi-center, prospective, longitudinal study conducted to investigate the survival and recurrence rates, functional status, mood, and quality of life of patients who have suffered ischemic or hemorrhagic strokes based on face-to-face assessments and interviews. In this study, we also conducted rehabilitation intervention studies to investigate the effects of early intensive rehabilitation therapies on long-term functional outcomes, and analyzed the cost-effectiveness of early intensive rehabilitation therapy in first-ever stroke patients.
Of the 10,636 patients who had suffered their first-ever stroke and who were admitted to 9 hospitals in Korea between August 2012 and May 2015, 7,858 patients agreed to participate in the follow-up study and were enrolled in the 1st Korean Stroke Cohort. The 2nd Korean Stroke Cohort conducted beteween January and December 2020 and included 2,413 patients who agreed to participate in the follow-up study out of the 4,065 patients examined. The clinical and early treatment characteristics of stroke patients differed between the 1st and 2nd Korean Stroke Cohorts, reflecting socio-environmental changes such as aging and medical insurance coverage of stroke care.
Patients in the 2nd Korean Stroke Cohort patients had a significantly higher mean age, higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome and higher previous functional level than those in the 1st Korean Stroke Cohort. In addition the rate of admission to stroke unit increased among patients in the 2nd Korean Stroke Cohort, and the number of patients who received interventional and rehabilitation treatment during the initial hospital reatment increased.
