Protocol for a mixed-methods study to explore implementation outcomes of the Phone-based Interventions under Nurse Guidance after Stroke (PINGS-II) across 10 hospitals in Ghana.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Stroke survivors are at a substantially higher risk for adverse vascular events driven partly by poorly controlled vascular risk factors. Mobile health interventions supported by task shifting strategies have been feasible to test in small pilot trials in low-income settings to promote vascular risk reduction after stroke. However, real-world success and timely implementation of such interventions remain challenging, necessitating research to bridge the know-do gap and expedite improvements in stroke management. The Phone-based Interventions under Nurse Guidance after Stroke (PINGS-II) is a nurse-led mHealth intervention for blood pressure control among stroke survivors, currently being assessed for efficacy in a hybrid clinical trial across 10 hospitals in Ghana compare
