The feasibility and effectiveness of telecare consultations in nurse-led post-acute stroke clinics: A study protocol.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Globally, nurse-led post-acute stroke clinics have been developed to provide secondary care services to stroke survivors. Although synthesized evidence supports the idea that the secondary prevention services delivered by nurses in these clinics can improve the functional ability of stroke survivors and reduce their readmission rates, long travel and waiting times, high costs, and the pandemic have limited the utilization of such clinics. Telecare consultations are a new modality for expanding public access to healthcare services, although how it can be applied in nurse-led clinics has not been reported.

Objective

The aim of this study is to determine the feasibility and effects of telecare consultations in nurse-led post-acute stroke clinics.
