Improving stroke clinical guideline adherence in an Australian hospital using a clinician-led implementation process
CONCLUSION: Stroke clinical guideline implementation led to a favorable uptake of some criteria, yet not all. Implementation was assisted by staff education, user-friendly stroke policies and multidisciplinary team collaboration.TRIAL REGISTRATION: ANZCTR: registration number ACTRN12616000646448 (http://www.ANZCTR.org.au/ACTRN12616000646448.aspx).PMID:36323526 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2022.2141819

Lipoprotein(a) levels in a global population with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease

Living with stroke during the first year after onset: an instrumental case study exploring the processes that influence adjustment
CONCLUSIONS: Adjustment to stroke necessitated a reconceptualization of self. Relationships and interactions with others emerged as potential facilitators. For health professionals working with people after stroke, knowledge of the adjustment process and attention to practices that affirm personhood and enhance self-efficacy have the potential to facilitate long term outcomes.

Psychometric properties of performance-based measures of physical function administered via telehealth among people with chronic conditions: A systematic review
ConclusionsSeveral performance-based measures of physical function across the domains of exercise capacity, strength, balance and general functional capacity may have sufficient reliability and criterion validity when administered via telehealth. However, the evidence is of low-very low quality, reflecting the small number of studies conducted and the small sample sizes included in the studies. Future research is needed to explore the measurement error, responsiveness, interpretability and feasibility of these measures administered via telehealth.
