Clinical Trial Summary

Stroke is one of the major leading causes of death and disability globally and presents a high interest of research around all its branches, including rehabilitation. There are published recommendations and clinical guidelines to guide the care of stroke patients with regard to physical therapy. However, the status of current clinical practice is unknown.

This study aims to identify and describe the therapeutic approaches most used by physiotherapists in Catalonia in the care of stroke survivors in different phases of evolution.

An observational study will be carried out through an anonymous survey of physiotherapists in Catalonia. Through the College of Physiotherapists of Catalonia, all members will be invited to answer a survey on current clinical practice in the care of stroke survivors. The survey will collect data related to the physiotherapist's training and experience, the most frequently used therapeutic approaches, user profiles and institutions. It is intended to collect the data between October 2022 and February 2023. The data will be analyzed by the team of researchers
