Summary

The goal of this retrospective longitudinal observational study is to compare the effects of physical and mental performance as well as quality of life in patients with neurological and musculoskeletal disorders.

The main question it aims to answer is: Do very old patients benefit in a similar way from inpatient rehabilitation like younger patients? Data from about 2000 patients will be retrospectively analyzed. Functional Independence Measurement (FIM), Timed Up and Go Test (TUG), EuroQol 5 Dimensions (EQ-5D) and Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) were recorded on admission and discharge.

Researchers will compare the age group 75 to 84 and 85 to 99 to see if physical and mental performance as well as quality of life will improve.
