Outline of Final Research Achievements

We investigated preventive behaviors and related factors in stroke patients and constructed a nursing support model applying behavioral science theory. The recurrence prevention behavior of stroke patients was four disease management behaviors and six lifestyle improvement behaviors. Stroke patients felt four benefits and four burdens in the recurrence prevention behavior. For the prevention of reoccurrence, there were four methods of support "information support," "instrumental support," "emotional support," and "evaluation support". Social support was another factor which was associated with medication, exercise, self-efficacy, behavioral change.
We also implemented classroom-type recurrence prevention education applying behavior change theory. Improvement was seen in medication behavior, dietary behavior, exercise, and self-efficacy.
