Analysis of Hospitalization Episodes Due to Stroke Romania

Abstract

Stroke is a major global problem, the second leading cause of death and the leading cause of disability in the world, requiring specific policies that address its management in an integrated manner.
DRG analysis provides a solid basis for understanding the costs and complexity associated with stroke and can support policy decisions by providing scientific evidence. The data can be used to identify areas for improvement, such as reducing the length of hospital stay and preventing readmissions.
A multidisciplinary approach, including patient education, rehabilitation, remote monitoring and family doctor involvement, can reduce repeat hospital admissions and improve long-term prognosis.
