Listen to this summary
The study aimed to evaluate the effects of animal-assisted treatment (AAT) on the rehabilitation outcomes of hospitalized stroke patients. Results showed that patients receiving AAT-embedded rehabilitation demonstrated significantly higher engagement, physical activity, and improved stress response compared to those receiving standard rehabilitation. The findings suggest that incorporating AAT into stroke rehabilitation may enhance patient motivation and activity levels.
