Stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality, morbidity, and disability worldwide. Stroke and transient ischaemic attack survivors are at risk of recurrent stroke, which is often more severe and disabling. Despite the success in acute treatment and rehabilitation of stroke, prevention remains the most effective way to reduce the global burden of the disease. Since preventative strategies have early effectiveness, prompt recognition of symptoms, specialist assessment and diagnosis, and initiation of these secondary prevention strategies are of utmost importance in stroke prevention. This chapter provides an overview of current primary and secondary stroke prevention strategies, highlighting the importance of rapid recognition, urgent specialist care, and evidence-based interventions, which are the cornerstones of effective management.

AbstractObjectivesPaucity of data from India on care of children with Type 1 diabetes in schools. Aims: To study assess the knowledge, attitude, practices and fear of Type 1 diabetes in school teachers and to assess the impact of an educational model on the fear of teachers and care of children in Type 1 DM at school hours.MethodsA community based study, involving school teachers and the intervention being educating them about diabetes conducted. Data pertaining to basic demography, attitude of teachers towards diabetic children, Hypoglycemia fear factor survey- parent version with worries domain and preparedness of school was collected. An education program was conducted on diabetes care in children. Immediately and after three months, the proforma details and HFSP-W scores reassessed.ResultsForty two teachers (mean age: 38.7±5.4; M:F ratio 2:40) participated in the study. Post intervention, a higher willingness to have the diabetic child in class (100 vs. 57.1%; p>0.05), better support in daily care (100 vs. 92%; p>0.05), participation in sports activities (100 vs. 7.1%; p<0.05) observed. HFSP-W scores were 38.8±4.5 (pre-intervention), 22.5±4.3 (immediate post intervention) and 29.5±3.2 (at 3months) (p<0.05). To study the determinants of improvement in HFSP-W a regression analysis was performed: presence of glucometer the most likely determining factor (T=1.999, p=0.05).ConclusionThere is a significant element of fear in the minds of teachers towards hypoglycemia which improves with a structured education program.
