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.
