Criteria | Specification of the review question |

Step 1: Specify your systematic review question | |
 Intended use of the model: | Prediction of functional outcome after rehabilitation treatment of post-stroke patients |
 Participants: | Adults post-stroke participants selected independently on the timing of the event or type of stroke |
 Predictors: | Any kind of predictor was included, more specifically any type included in the following categories of stroke assessment: biomechanical assessment, functional assessment, demographic characteristics, medical history, stroke assessment and neurological assessment. The selected predictors are related to the admission or recovery phase only, excluding predictors variables collected at discharge |
 Outcome: | Any kind of functional outcome, not exclusively cognitive or sensory-related was selected |
