Increasing Stroke Knowledge and Decreasing Stroke Risk in a Latino Immigrant Population
We present results of an evaluation of a tailored, community-based intervention in Durham, North Carolina. The intervention included integration of stroke knowledge into classes and workshops at a community-based organization. Knowledge surveys were administered to participants immediately before and after stroke education, and at multiple points over the following year. For both low-risk participants receiving classroom-based education and individually care managed participants with risk factors, stroke knowledge improved dramatically and remained high among those who could be reached for follow-up. Evidence of behavior c...

Innovation of the governance of integrated care
Aim: Interest in integrated care is growing. This is reflected in the rising numbers of scientific publications, IJIC ’s increased impact factor and the increasing number of participants at IFIC’s international conferences. It is stimulating to see that organizations like the World Health Organisation are developing conceptual frameworks that embrace integrated care [1,2]. At the same time we know that integrat ed care does not become reality automatically; it takes a long timeframe. That can be conflicting with ambitions like ‘implementing good practices as fast as possible’ and with the pressure to deliver result...

The 10th Biennial Hatter Cardiovascular Institute workshop: cellular protection —evaluating new directions in the setting of myocardial infarction, ischaemic stroke, and cardio-oncology
AbstractDue to its poor capacity for regeneration, the heart is particularly sensitive to the loss of contractile cardiomyocytes. The onslaught of damage caused by ischaemia and reperfusion, occurring during an acute myocardial infarction and the subsequent reperfusion therapy, can wipe out upwards of a billion cardiomyocytes. A similar program of cell death can cause the irreversible loss of neurons in ischaemic stroke. Similar pathways of lethal cell injury can contribute to other pathologies such as left ventricular dysfunction and heart failure caused by cancer therapy. Consequently, strategies designed to protect the ...

The Acute Aphasia IMplementation Study (AAIMS): a pilot cluster randomized controlled trial.
CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS: This study showed that a tailored implementation intervention targeting acute SLTs' aphasia management practices was feasible to deliver and acceptable for most participants. In addition, the interventions were potentially effective, particularly for the information provision behaviour targeted by Intervention A. It was possible partially to explain the mechanisms of behaviour change that occurred during the study. PMID: 30079573 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
