The goal of this observational study is to learn about the recurrent falls in patients with acute stroke. The main question[s] it aims to answer are:
Participants will be evaluated in terms of
Falling is common in stroke patients both in the hospital and at home after discharge. As a result, physical problems such as fractures and psychological problems such as fear of falling, limitation of physical activity and social isolation occur. Identifying the factors that cause falls after stroke will contribute to the recovery process by preventing complications by taking the necessary precautions and increasing the patient's participation in rehabilitation. This study was planned to determine the frequency of falls in patients with acute stroke and to determine the risk factors associated with recurrent falls within the first six months after stroke.
7,443 studies on the registry are indexed under Stroke; 2,012 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 147 is close to the median of 160 across 1,729 observational studies indexed under Stroke.

Ran from Mar 2021 to primary completion in Feb 2023, 22 months.
Of 787 non-industry observational studies under Stroke, half reached primary completion within 43 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 18 and three quarters within 101. This study's 22 months is below that.
Counting every sponsor, half of 833 studies reached it within 41 months; a quarter within 18 and three quarters within 92.
