• Stroke Prevention And Healthy Lifestyle Education Package (2024)

Penulis: Sakinah Harith, Wong Hui Jie, Lua Pei Lin, Khairul Azmi Ibrahim 


This book describes the process of developing and implementing a healthy lifestyle education package with the objective of improving modifiable risk factors and preventing recurrent stroke. Increased mortality and disability following a recurrent stroke have made secondary stroke prevention a priority in post-stroke management. This book starts off its first chapter by enlightening all readers with an overview of stroke burden and its research gaps in stroke prevention. The second chapter explains stroke risk factors, its pathology, clinical consequences, and reasons for poor risk factor control. In addition, the effectiveness of past lifestyle interventions in improving blood pressure, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidaemia, obesity, smoking, alcohol consumption, and physical inactivity are appropriately discussed. Health-related quality of life implications and malnutrition issues are mentioned as well. The following chapters focus on need assessment, development, and implementation of a lifestyle education package guided by the Health Belief Model and reflection and reflective theory. The newly developed lifestyle education package shows promising results in improving the clinical parameters, lifestyle indices, stroke knowledge, and health-related quality of life. It is hoped that all readers will gain valuable knowledge, particularly in the area of secondary stroke prevention.
