344 Prognostic Indicators of Being Discharged Home After an Ischemic Stroke

Acute ischemic stroke is a high-stakes diagnosis, after which fully 20% are dead at 90 days, and more than 50% cannot return to their previous functional ability or employment. It is thus important to understand what, if any, are prognostic markers for discharge to home after acute ischemic stroke. In this study we sought to determine which clinical and demographic variables are associated with a favorable prognosis, as characterized by discharge to home (with or without home health care).
