Abstract

The Purpose of this study was to compare the stroke patients within day-care center　to patients within family-care about the function of activity of daily living. They were selected as twenty groups. Each group had the same hemiplegic side, the same motor stage, and the same score of Barthel Index. They also got the same observation duration. No significant difference at admission were found between the two groups, except that the day-care patient had higher scores in dressing lower body (P=0.04). At discharge, the day-care patient had higher functional score in feeding than the family-care patient (P=0.0036). Within-group functional change from admission to discharge were found.
