Gender differences in feelings and knowledge about stroke
ConclusionStroke knowledge is poor among men and women. Higher level of education is a predictor of stroke knowledge among both genders. Gender‐specific differences in stroke risk factors and feelings about stroke in different sub‐populations should be taken into account to improve prevention of stroke through education programmes.
Relevance to clinical practiceHealth education on stroke prevention should be tailored to population groups differing in level of education. Health promotion recommendations should be provided by nurses with regard to beliefs of both men and women regarding prevention of stroke.

Stroke survivors ’ and carers’ experiences of a systematic voiding programme to treat urinary incontinence after stroke
ConclusionsThe effectiveness of a systematic voiding programme may partly lie in its educational component, challenging patients’ and carers’ assumptions that post‐stroke incontinence is inevitable. Individual adaptation of the programme, and the ability to incorporate it alongside other aspects of care, are likely to be key factors influencing implementation.
Relevance to clinical practiceUrinary incontinence is common after stroke. In order to maximise benefits from a systematic voiding programme, nurses should support stroke survivors to overturn erroneous beliefs, to participate in tailoring of the programme, and...

Family History of Stroke Among African Americans and Its Association With Risk Factors, Knowledge, Perceptions, and Exercise.
CONCLUSIONS:: Family history of stroke was common in this sample; however, it did not translate into better understanding of stroke or better exercise behaviors and intentions. More can be done to identify African Americans with a FHS, especially those with multiple risk factors, to educate them about the significance of FHS while promoting lifestyle change and self-management.
