Abstract

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Accurate prediction using simple and changeable variables is clinically meaningful because some known-predictors, such as stroke severity and patients age cannot be modified with rehabilitative treatment. There are limited clinical prediction rules (CPRs) that have been established using only changeable variables to predict the activities of daily living (ADL) dependence of stroke patients. This study aimed to develop and assess the CPRs using machine learning-based methods to identify ADL dependence in stroke patients.
