Implementation of a Structured Guideline–Based Program for the Secondary Prevention of Ischemic Stroke in China

Abstract

The implementation of a program to improve adherence to secondary ischemic stroke prevention efforts in China is feasible, but these programs had only a limited impact on adherence and no impact on 1-year outcomes. Further development of a structured program to reduce vascular events after stroke is needed. Clinical Trial Registration-URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT00664846.
