Adherence to Post-Stroke Pharmacotherapy: Scale Validation and Correlates among a Sample of Stroke Survivors
Conclusions: The LMAS-14 is a valid and reliable tool to assess medication adherence in stroke practice and research.

Additional measures and urgent action by stroke care providers and public health stakeholders are necessary to ensure adequate post-stroke management and outcomes.PMID:36013576 | PMC:PMC9413934 | DOI:10.3390/medicina58081109

Despite the study’s focus, outdoor pollution, waterpipe dependence, and passive smoking were linked to ischemic stroke. In summary, this review suggests that improving one’s nutritional status and making a few lifestyle changes are key stroke prevention and treatment methods.
