Improve Medication Adherence Among Stroke Survivors in Rural Kentucky
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Stroke (CVA) or Transient Ischemic Attack
In brief
To test the feasibility and promise of a combined intervention provided by community health worker (CHW) in collaboration with pharmacy technician and pharmacist to improve hypertension and long-term stroke outcomes by identifying and reducing barriers to medication adherence among ischemic stroke survivors. This collaborative intervention involves a self-management program including an educational session on practical strategies to improve hypertension control (i.e., appropriately taking medications, necessity of treatment, and consequences of not taking medicine, etc.), complemented by individually-tailored sessions to identify and address barriers to medication adherence.
