You're going about this all wrong! Provide 100% recovery protocols and street crossing research is unnecessary.

Abstract: Study examined associations between features of the physical environment and post-stroke physical quality of life (PH-QOL). Features of the physical environment surrounding participants’ home addresses were audited using Google Earth. Audits captured information about crossings (e.g. curb-cuts, range 0-4); street segments (e.g. sidewalks, range 0-17.5); and a route (e.g. parks, range 0-27) near participants’ home. Summary scores were categorized into tertials representing “few,” “some,” and “many” pedestrian-friendly features. Post-stroke PH-QOL was measured by the SF-12 (range 0-100) around 6 to 12-, 18-, 27-, and 36-months post-stroke. Linear mixed models were used to estimate PH-QOL over time. Chained multiple imputation was used to account for missing data. Of the 275 eligible participants, 210 had complete data and were included in the analysis. Most participants lived in areas with “few” features to promote outdoor mobility. Participants living in environments with “some” crossing features had a 4.90 higher PH-QOL score across the observation period in comparison to participants living in environments with “few” crossing features. Features of the physical environment along street segments and routes were not associated with post-stroke PH-QOL. Crossing features are associated with post-stroke PH-QOL. Modifying features of the physical environment at nearby crossings, such as curb-cuts, may be a promising strategy for increasing PH-QOL.
