Included: all patients are included in this indicator, except those who are either medically unwell, refused to be assessed or had no relevant deficit.
Excluded: patients who are medically unwell, refused to be assessed or had no relevant deficit (i.e. patients where Q 3.6.1 is answered ‘Patient refused’, ‘Patient medically unwell’ or ‘Patient had no relevant deficit’) are excluded from this indicator
Numerator = the number of patients who were assessed by a physiotherapist within 24 hours of clock start.
Denominator = all the applicable patients in the cohort. Patients who are applicable but not assessed by a physiotherapist are included in the denominator.
To calculate whether a patient is included in the numerator:
For newly arrived patients, the difference between the date and time first assessed by a physiotherapist (Q 3.6) and date and time of arrival (Q 1.13) must be greater than 0 minutes and less than or equal to 1440 minutes.
For patients already in hospital at the time of their stroke (Q 1.10 is ‘Yes’), the difference between the date and time first assessed by a physiotherapist (Q 3.6) and the date and time of symptom onset (Q 1.11) must be greater than 0 minutes and less than or equal to 1440 minutes.
