| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A non-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted in stroke patients to determine whether an education program intervention would alter behavior with regard to performing home blood pressure measurements. This study aimed to examine the efficacy of the program from hospitalization to post-discharge.
The rate of performing home blood pressure measurements in stroke patients was significantly higher in the intervention group (n = 24) compared to the usual care group (n = 24) (p < .001). Home blood pressure (systolic blood pressure) was significantly lower in the intervention group compared to the usual care group at 7 months after the registration of this study.
The 12-month time point corresponds to 6 months of post-intervention follow-up, indicating that the effects of the intervention are still continuing.
