Excluded: no patients are excluded from this indicator
Numerator = the number of patients achieving 128 minutes of therapy per day.
Denominator = all the patients in the cohort. Patients who are not considered to require any therapy are included in the denominator.
To calculate the length of stay at an inpatient team:
The team centred length of stay at a team if team was the first team the patient was seen by:
For newly arrived patients, the difference between:
- either: the date the patient died (Q7.1.1), the date the patient was discharged from the team (Q7.3) or the date the patient was considered by the MDT to no longer require inpatient care (Q7.3.1), whichever is earliest, with a time component of 00:00.
- and date and time of arrival (Q 1.13).
For patients already in hospital at the time of their stroke (Q 1.10 is ‘Yes’), the difference between:
- either: the date the patient died (Q7.1.1), the date the patient was discharged from the team (Q7.3) or the date the patient was considered by the MDT to no longer require inpatient care (Q7.3.1), whichever is earliest, with a time component of 00:00.
- and date and time of symptom onset (Q 1.11).
The team centred length of stay at a team if the team was NOT the first team the patient was seen by:
The difference between:
- either: the date the patient died (Q7.1.1), the date the patient was discharged from the team (Q7.3) or the date the patient was considered by the MDT to no longer require inpatient care (Q7.3.1), whichever is earliest, with a time component of 00:00.
- and: date and time of arrival at this hospital (Q 4.1).
Team-centred: The length of stay at that team is the patient’s length of stay minus 1 day. The shortest length of stay in a given team is set at 24 hours, therefore any shorter lengths of stay are rounded up to reflect this.
Patient centred: The length of stay at each team the patient was seen by are summed together to give the patient’s total length of stay. 1 day is subtracted from the total length of stay. The shortest length of stay in a given team is set at 24 hours, therefore any shorter lengths of stay are rounded up to reflect this.
To calculate the total number of minutes the patient received therapy:
For team-centred: the number of minutes the patient received Motor (Q 4.6.1), Psychological (Q 4.6.2), Communication/swallowing (Q 4.6.3) and Other (Q 4.6.4) therapy at the specific team are summed together to give the total number of therapy minutes at the specific team.
For patient-centred: the number of minutes the patient received Motor (Q 4.6.1), Psychological (Q 4.6.2), Communication/swallowing (Q 4.6.3) and Other (Q 4.6.4) therapy at each inpatient team the patient was seen by are summed together to give the total number of therapy minutes across the patient stay.
To calculate the number of therapy minutes received per day:
Divide the total number of therapy minutes by the patient’s length of stay.
To calculate the percentage of patients achieving the target of 128 minutes of therapy per day:
Count the number of patients achieving 128 minutes of therapy per day.
