Abstract
Background; Education has a vital role in decreasing stroke recurrence and facilitating successful self-management of this chronic disease. Aims were to; Evaluate the effect of implementing pre discharge nursing education on recurrence of stroke among studied patients. Research design; (Pre/posttest) quazi experimental research design was utilized in this study. Setting; Neurology department at Assuit University Hospital. Sample; (150) adult patients with stroke (males & females). Tools; Patient’s assessment sheet and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) were used (pre & post) the implementation of pre discharge nursing education. Results; Mean age of patients in control group was (54.46±9.52) years old and study group was (51.6±12.8) years old and there was a statistical significance difference between the control and the study groups as regarding recurrence of the stroke (p < 0.005). Conclusion; Stroke recurrence was significantly decreased among the studied patients who received pre discharge nursing education than patients who received routine hospital care (control group). Recommendation; Instruction hand book about modifiable risk factors that lead to stroke recurrence and methods to deal with it should be available for all patients with stroke.
