Readmission and Death After Hospitalization for Acute Ischemic Stroke. 5-Year Follow-Up in the Medicare Population
Stroke 38:1899-1904, Bravata,D.M.,et al, 2007
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Few stroke patients survive for 5 years without a hospital readmission. Between the acute care setting and readmission to the hospital, a window of opportunity may exist for interventions, beyond prevention of recurrent vascular events alone, to reduce the huge public health burden of poststroke morbidity.
