“…Other important activities that must be mastered by the stroke care team are: knowing the patient's needs, providing a sense of security and comfort, and understanding the side effects of the medications given to the patient (Yetzer et al, 2016). The care team also needs to provide education to patients and families (Booth et al, 2005), build collaboration between them (Vanderzalm et al, 2013), and perform nurse advocacy functions for patients and families (Barreca and Wilkins, 2008).…”

Background: A stroke has an impact on the lives of patients and families, including disruption to the fulfillment of daily needs, the disturbance of the nervous system, and a decrease in the quality of life. Rehabilitation is needed to overcome these problems. However, the current concept of rehabilitation still requires in-depth analysis to make the concept clearer.Objective: This study discusses in detail the concept of stroke neurorehabilitation based on the relevant literature. Methods: This study applies a literature study by searching the literature through PubMed MESH data, and EBSCO with the following keywords: rehabilitation nursing, and stroke. Meanwhile, the concept analysis uses guidance from Walker and Avant. Results: The literature search found 51 articles that met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. Based on the review that has been carried out, there are 2 antecedent factors, namely internal and external. The are 6 rehabilitation attributes, including (1) Providing holistic biopsychosocial care, (2) Nurses' ability to communicate effectively, therapeutically, and creatively, (3) Being caring and active, (4) existence of collaboration among care teams, patients and families, (5) Having a structured intervention system through clear guidelines, and 6) Using technology to support interventions. By applying those attributes, an increase in the quality of life of stroke patients can be optimally obtained. Conclusions: Neurorehabilitation requires a multidisciplinary approach, a caring attitude, and the mastery of technology.

“…However, most patients with stroke already carry a heavy medication load because they suffer from one or more chronic primary diseases [6], such as hypertension, diabetes, and coronary heart disease, which require lifelong medication [7]. Moreover, most patients with stroke are older and have poor memory, weak self-care ability, take many types of medications, lack communication abilities, and suffer from emotional disorders that can endanger their health [8,9]. The behavior of patients toward medication, especially their adherence to a medication regimen, has become the focus of clinical treatment and nursing.…”

In China, stroke is characterized by high incidence, recurrence, disability, economic burden, and mortality. Regular and effective medication therapy can reduce stroke recurrence. High medication literacy is vital for the success of tertiary prevention measures aimed at preventing recurrence and minimizing disability. A cross-sectional survey using a medication literacy questionnaire was conducted between January and May 2022 on 307 inpatients of a Class III Grade A hospital in Hefei, Anhui Province, China. The demographic and clinical data of the patients were obtained from medical records. The health literacy of the patients was moderate, with 36.8% exhibiting adequate medication literacy. Univariate analysis identified significant differences in the medication literacy of the patients, depending on education level, annual income, family history of stroke, number of health problems, age, daily medication times, and brain surgery history. Multiple regression analysis revealed that education level, annual income, family history of stroke, and number of health problems significantly influenced medication literacy. In patients with stroke who are older and have a low education level, more health problems, no history of surgery, or no family history of stroke or medication guidance, medication knowledge and attitude can be improved to enhance medication safety and guarantee tertiary-level prevention of stroke.
