The goal of this observational study is to describe the evolution of gait recovery during the subacute phase of stroke up to six months after stroke, in patients hospitalized in medical and neurological rehabilitation units.

RECRUITINGFunctional Ambulation Classification
The Functional Ambulation Categories (FAC) is a 6-point functional walking test that evaluates ambulation ability.
Time frame: Functional Ambulation Classification will be carried out within 72 hours of admission to the neurological center, then at 1, 3 and 6 months, and at discharge from hospital (assessed up to 5 days).
Postural Assesment Scale for Stroke Patient
The Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke Patients (PASS) assesses balance in lying, sitting and standing positions. It was designed specifically for patients with stroke and is suitable for all individuals regardless of postural performance. The PASS consists of a 4-point scale where items are scored from 0 - 3. The total score ranges from 0 - 36, the higher the score is, the more favourable the balance in stroke patients.
Time frame: Postural Assesment Scale for Stroke Patient will be carried out within 72 hours of admission to the neurological center, then at 1, 3 and 6 months, and at discharge from hospital (assessed up to 5 days).
Timed Up and Go
The Timed Up and Go is a general physical performance test used to assess mobility, balance and locomotor performance. More specifically, it assesses the ability to perform sequential motor tasks relative to walking and turning.
Time frame: Timed Up and Go will be carried out within 72 hours of admission to the neurological center, then at 1, 3 and 6 months, and at discharge from hospital (assessed up to 5 days).
10-Meter Walk Test
The 10 Metre Walk Test is a performance measure used to assess walking speed in meters per second over a short distance
Time frame: 10-Meter Walk Test will be carried out within 72 hours of admission to the neurological center, then at 1, 3 and 6 months, and at discharge from hospital (assessed up to 5 days).
6Minute-Walk Test

The 6 Minute Walk Test is a sub-maximal exercise test used to assess aerobic capacity and endurance. The distance covered over a time of 6 minutes is used as the outcome by which to compare changes in performance capacity.
Time frame: 6Minute-Walk Test will be carried out within 72 hours of admission to the neurological center, then at 1, 3 and 6 months, and at discharge from hospital (assessed up to 5 days).
Motricity Index
The Motricity Index (MI) is an ordinal method of measuring limb strength. The total score ranges from 0 - 100, with the higher numbers representing good muscle strength.
Time frame: Motricity Index will be carried out within 72 hours of admission to the neurological center, then at 1, 3 and 6 months, and at discharge from hospital (assessed up to 5 days).
