Body composition appears to be a prognostic factor for the severity and functional outcome of stroke patients. In this study the prognostic value of two bioimpedance parameters will be studied (skeletal mass index and phase angle) and two temporal muscle measurements (thickness and surface area) to predict the functional outcome of patients at discharge and at 6 months
