Primary care-based interventions for post-stroke follow-up for long-term care: a systematic review

Listen to this summary

This systematic review aims to identify effective follow-up interventions in primary and community care for stroke survivors after discharge from specialist services. The authors found that while various care coordination strategies and self-management approaches exist, there is a significant need to address the emotional and mental health needs of these patients. Ultimately, the study highlights the potential of multidisciplinary primary care to provide comprehensive support for stroke survivors.
