Methods: Participants for this retrospective study were 214 CVD patients admitted to rehabilitation units. First onset of con- stipation and factors influencing constipation such as dependency level were recorded for 14 days during the re- habilitation stage. Survival analysis with Cox proportional hazard model and descriptive statistics were conducted. Results: Age, patients’severity, types of diet, and dependency level were different between constipation and non-constipation groups. In survival analysis, 99% of participants developed constipation within 14 days after ad- mission to rehabilitation units. Median constipation occurrence time was 7.4 days. Patients who were immobile and had tube feedings were more likely to develop constipation 4.07 times (95% CI: 1.018~16.301, p=.047) and 2.09 times (95% CI: 1.001~4.377, p=.050) respectively compared to patients who were independent and had a regular diet, respectively. Conclusion: Most CVD patients experienced constipation within 2 weeks after entering the rehabilitation stage. Constipation was linked to types of diet and dependency level. These factors associated with constipation should be considered when caring for patients in rehabilitation.
