A high societal burden and a considerable increase in stroke-related disability was globally observed over the last 3 decades, and is expected to continue implying
a major challenge for societies around the word. Structured multidisciplinary stroke rehabilitation reduces stroke-related disability both in older and younger stroke survivors of either sex and independent of stroke severity. In addition, there is rapidly increasing evidence to support the clinical effectiveness of specific stroke rehabilitation interventions. Evidence-based guidelines help to promote best possible clinical practice.
