“…The protocol of the intervention was designed by the investigator based on a literature review, 20,22,35 and the main components of the intervention were validated by a panel of 5 local experts in nursing and medicine specializing in stroke care. The intervention was implemented by 3 stroke nurses (each with a bachelor's degree in nursing and at least 10 years of experience in stroke nursing) who received intensive training and supervision in the delivery of the intervention.…”

“…Interventions were categorized by the primary intervention type, as follows: (1) educational interventions delivered with or without additional behavioral or social support [13–28], through counseling [29–31], health coaching [32;33], or motivational interviewing [34;35], or in combination with feedback on clinical values, involving patients in self-monitoring, or e-health [36–38] (Table 1); (2) augmented pharmacy services [39–50] (Table 2); (3) decision aids or shared decision-making [51–59] (Table 3); (4) case management [60–67] (Table 4); and (5) feedback of adherence or clinical values to pharmacists or physicians or monitoring of medication-taking behaviors [68–72] (Table 4). …”

Objective Patient-centered approaches to improving medication adherence hold promise, but evidence of their effectiveness is unclear. This review reports the current state of scientific research around interventions to improve medication management through four patient-centered domains: shared decision-making, methods to enhance effective prescribing, systems for eliciting and acting on patient feedback about medication use and treatment goals, and medication-taking behavior. Methods We reviewed literature on interventions that fell into these domains and were published between January 2007 and May 2013. Two reviewers abstracted information and categorized studies by intervention type. Results We identified 60 studies, of which 40% focused on patient education. Other intervention types included augmented pharmacy services, decision aids, shared decision-making, and clinical review of patient adherence. Medication adherence was an outcome in most (70%) of the studies, although 50% also examined patient-centered outcomes. Conclusions We identified a large number of medication management interventions that incorporated patient-centered care and improved patient outcomes. We were unable to determine whether these interventions are more effective than traditional medication adherence interventions. Practice Implications Additional research is needed to identify effective and feasible approaches to incorporate patient-centeredness into the medication management processes of the current health care system, if appropriate.

“…As countries improve their communication technologies it is becoming a realistic option for delivering rehabilitation to those who live in remote areas and to those who find it difficult to leave home. While many studies attempt to combine regular visits by therapists and nurses with remote contact (phone or videoconferencing) to support stroke survivors in risk factor management [84] or with psychosocial issues [85] several studies have assessed telehealth approaches to improving upper limb function using customised computer based training programs [86][87][88] but the trials are small and the results have been mixed. If the results are similar the important outcomes will be costs which are still high.…”

/ SummaryStroke is a leading cause of disability worldwide, with risk increasing with age.Upper limb hemiparesis is common and associated with persistent impairments and associated disabilities. Older stroke populations often suffer multiple co-morbidities and restoring independence is complex. Recovery of upper limb function can be crucial for them to return to independent living and to participate in community life.This review describes upper limb recovery post stroke, and some of the new therapeutic approaches available to promote recovery. Technologies (including virtual reality and telehealth) offer the opportunity for more home based therapies, longer programs, greater access to rehabilitation for older people however the trials continue to exclude older people so acceptability is poorly understood.

Does telephone follow-up improve blood pressure after minor stroke or TIA?

Abstract: our study found TFU that promoted patient-led management of risk factors did not improve BP control over 6-month follow-up in primary care after stroke/TIA.
