RESUMO
Purpose：We investigated the factors associated with medical device-related pressure ulcer (MDRPU) due to lower extremity orthosis in patients undergoing convalescent rehabilitation for stroke.Methods：This retrospective study included patients with stroke who wore ankle foot orthosis in the convalescent rehabilitation ward. We measured the following items at admission：Brunnstrom recovery stage, presence of sensory disturbance, exhibition of unilateral spatial neglect, functional independence measures at admission and discharge, and presence of MDRPU. In the statistical analysis, logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the significant factors associated with MDRPU.Results：Ninety-five participants were enrolled in this study (mean age：54.9 ± 11.6 years, Male：78.9%). In logistic regression analysis, Age (odds ratio＝1.05, 95% confidence interval＝1.01-1.10, p＜0.05) and the presence of sensory disturbance (odds ratio＝5.17, 95% confidence interval＝1.39-19.28, p＜0.05) at admission was extracted as the cause of MDRPU.Conclusion：Sensory disturbance at admission is associated with MDRPU in patients undergoing convalescent rehabilitation for stroke who wear ankle foot orthosis.

RESUMO
Purpose：This study investigated the factors associated with rehabilitation service satisfaction in convalescent stroke patients.Methods：This cross-sectional study included 41 participants (mean age 50.5 ± 9.3 years；73.2％ were male). Patients with severe cognitive impairment who were unable to respond to questionnaires were excluded from the study. At discharge, patient satisfaction was assessed using the Customer Satisfaction Scale based on Need Satisfaction (CSSNS) tool. We also evaluated physical function using the Stroke Impairment Assessment Set-Motor (SIAS-M) gain tool, activities of daily living (ADL) using the Motor-Functional Independence Measure (M-FIM) effectiveness tool, depressive symptoms using the Japan Stroke Scale-Depression (JSS-D) tool, optimism using the revised Life Orientation Test (LOT-R), and service quality using the SERVPERF model. Stepwise regression analysis was performed to identify factors that were significantly associated with CSSNS scores.Results：The mean CSSNS score of participants was 55.5 ± 8.3 points. Stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that M-FIM effectiveness (β＝0.48, p＜0.01) and SERVPERF scores (β＝0.48, p＜0.01) were significantly associated with CSSNS scores.Conclusion：This study revealed that favorable improvements in ADL and better service quality were associated with higher rehabilitation service satisfaction in convalescent stroke patients.
