Summary

The timed supine-to-stand test (TSS) effectively measures floor-to-stand ability in stroke survivors, correlating with gait, balance, and confidence. This aids in assessing functional mobility and developing targeted interventions.

Background:

Floor-to-stand performance is crucial for functional mobility but understudied in stroke recovery.
Stroke survivors face increased fall risks and challenges in returning to a standing position after a fall.

Purpose of the Study:

To examine the relationship between the timed supine-to-stand test (TSS) and physical performance measures (gait, balance, confidence) in subacute stroke patients.
To analyze the strategies employed during the TSS.

Main Methods:

A cross-sectional study involving 58 subacute stroke adults.
Participants completed the TSS and various physical performance assessments.

Main Results:

TSS completion time showed significant correlations with the Timed "Up & Go" Test, gait speed, Dynamic Gait Index, and balance confidence.
The quadruped position and Timed "Up & Go" Test time explained 32% of the variance in TSS time.
Gait device users were more likely to use a chair to stand.

Conclusions:

The TSS is a valid measure for assessing floor-to-stand performance in stroke survivors.
Findings can inform functional mobility assessments and guide the development of interventions to enhance floor-to-stand recovery after stroke.
