Comparisons of Stroke Knowledge and Health Behaviors in Patients With Hypertensive Stroke at Different Recurrence Risk Strata: The Comprehensive Reminder System Based on the Health Belief Model Study
Conclusions
Most patients incorrectly estimated their risk of stroke recurrence. Communicating with patients about their future risk of recurrent stroke may help improve their stroke knowledge and health behaviors. Implementation of the Comprehensive Reminder System based on the Health Belief Model focusing on risk education aimed at prevention of stroke recurrence is warranted in China.

Age-Group and Gender Differences in Stroke Knowledge in an Israeli Jewish Adult Population
Conclusion:
Participants younger than 45 years showed the lowest levels of stroke knowledge. The highest stroke knowledge was found in the 45 to 64 years age group. Stroke knowledge among different age groups was similar in both genders. Educational campaigns aimed at increasing knowledge of stroke among the general population and targeting the younger population are recommended.

Earlier thrombolytic treatment is associated with better outcomes following acute ischaemic stroke
Commentary on Saver JL, Fonarow GC, Smith EE, et al.. Time to treatment with intravenous tissue plasminogen activator and outcome from acute ischaemic stroke, JAMA 2013;309:2480–8. Implications for practice and research Optimisation is necessary in public education and hospital triage of the identification of factors such as arrival by ambulance and the importance of requesting emergency medical services (EMS) at scene of the stroke occurrence.1 The results of previous studies suggest that a disparity, observed between hospital-based outcomes for admissions that presented during regular hours and off hours, is not se...

The Impact of Nurse Staffing on In-Hospital Mortality of Stroke Patients in Korea
Conclusion:
Policies to educate sufficient numbers of nurses and retain them in the field are warranted, especially because medical-cost containment has become a dominant concern in most countries. Further studies are needed to understand the mechanisms and other protective roles of nurse staffing to ensure long-term health outcomes after hospital discharge.

Stroke Prevention Knowledge and Prestroke Health Behaviors Among Hypertensive Stroke Patients in Mainland China.
CONCLUSIONS:: The participants showed a relatively low level of stroke prevention knowledge and a moderate level of engagement in healthy behaviors. Pearson correlation coefficient between these 2 variables was 0.423 (P < .001). The results of multiple regression analysis showed that stroke prevention knowledge was positively influenced by education level; health behaviors were positively influenced by both gender and stroke prevention knowledge. Findings suggest that male hypertensive patients and those with a lower education level need targeted stroke education. Because knowledge was unrelated to behavior with respect...

Differences in the knowledge and compliance with secondary prevention of stroke between transient ischaemic attack patients with and without subsequent stroke
ConclusionsThe transient ischaemic attack patients with subsequent stroke exhibit a higher identification rate of most of the warning signs of stroke and a better compliance with antiplatelet agents and statins therapy of stroke compared with those without subsequent stroke. Thus, we suggest that transient ischaemic attack patients should receive additional health education to increase their awareness of the harms of stroke.
Relevance to clinical practiceClinicians should be aware of conducting different health education to patients with transient ischaemic attack and stroke. Also, it is important to give health education ...

Evaluating a community‐based stroke nursing education and rehabilitation programme for patients with mild stroke
This study evaluated whether mild stroke patients who received a community‐based stroke nursing intervention had better stroke knowledge, behaviour and self‐efficacy than those who were exposed to traditional education programmes. The intervention group consisted of sixty five stroke patients randomly selected from seven communities who received three 2‐hour stroke interventions per week for 8 weeks. The normal care group consisted of sixty two stroke patients randomly selected from a medical centre who received a general stroke education programme. The stroke patients in two groups were assessed at baseline, after i...

Passed without a stroke: A UK mixed method study exploring student nurses' knowledge of stroke
Conclusions: All nursing students should have experience of being in contact with people who have had a stroke — and at present this does not always happen. A national intervention study is now suggested with a view to providing stroke education which is proportionate to its significance as a major health issue.Relevance to Clinical Practice: Nurses draw upon their fundamental clinical skills to care and treat patients who have survived a stroke. Additionally, stroke survivors also require enhanced knowledge and this is recognised in the growth of specialist stroke nurses. Improving stroke mortality and morbidity is the ...
