   Sammanfattning : This thesis, based on studies conducted in the South West Health District of Stockholm County sought: 1) to explore and compare the behavior of patients and therapists during stroke rehabilitation sessions in the home and in the hospital; 2) to describe a program of early supported discharge and continued rehabilitation at home for patients with moderate neurological impairments after stroke; and 3) to evaluate the effect of the program in terms of patient outcome, resource use and cost of health care in comparison with routine rehabilitation. Eighty-three patients-continent, independent in feeding and mental function within normal limits, with impaired motor capacity and/or dysphasia 5-7 days after acute stroke-were included in a randomized controlled trial; 41 were allocated to early supported discharge and continued rehabilitation at home (HRG) and 40 to routine rehabilitation (RRG).
