title: Stroke rehabilitation: would your patient benefit?
abstract: Stroke is a common event with major implications for functional loss for the patient, the family, and society. Very little can be done medically or surgically to enhance neurological function, so rehabilitation on functional grounds becomes paramount. It is very difficult to predict if a patient will benefit from rehabilitation on neurological grounds; any patient who is alert, can learn, and can cooperate should be offered a stroke rehabilitation program as soon as he is able to participate in it.
