title: [Requirements for patient-oriented results of research on stroke outcome].
abstract: Because assessing the requirements for patient-oriented outcome research on stroke rests on numerous prerequisites, these have to be defined beforehand, at least in a general sense. They consist of the epidemiological dimensions of stroke and related societal challenges; the special features of this disease entity with resulting numerous outcome dimensions; the structure, processes and results of the management of stroke; current outcome measurements with their patient-relevant results including quality of life; and the great importance of individually adapted prevention of recurrences and secondary events, as well as adequate treatment of associated diseases or sequelae. It is only on this basis that in the end those features can be formulated that are needed for patient-relevant outcome research.
