Outcome differences in participants with and without spatial neglect.

		All N=108	SN− n= 34	SN+ n=74	p value (comparison between SN− and SN+ )
FIM Total median (IQR)	At admission	64.5 (47.5–8.5)	82 (71–92)	56 (43–70)	< .001d
	At discharge	94.5 (76.5–111.5)	112 (104–119)	88.5 (68–99)	< .001d
	Improvement	28.5 (16.5–34.5)	31 (18–34)	27 (16–35)	.508d
	Improvement ratea	1.94 (.96–2.82)	2.81 (2.33–4.86)	1.38 (.75–2.25)	< .001d
Conley Scale	median (IQR)	3 (1–5)	1 (1–3)	4 (2–5)	< .001d
Number of falls during the stay	0	92	33	59	.034b
	1 or more	15	1	14
Length of stay	Days; median (IQR)	21 (13–26.5)	13 (9–20)	23 (18–27)	< .001d
Discharge disposition	Home	80	32	48	.002c

Note:

^aImprovement rate = (score at discharge - score at admission) / days between two assessments

^bFisher’s exact test;

^cFreeman-Halton test;

^dU test
