Validation And Turkish Cross-Cultural Adaptation of Stroke Knowledge Test

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Cerebrovascular diseases are the leading cause of disability, work loss, and quality of life reduction, the third leading cause of death globally, and significantly impact hospital admissions and expenses. This prevalence rises with an aging population and comorbidities. Recognizing stroke symptoms quickly is crucial for timely treatment. Miscommunication or misunderstanding among hypertensive patients, who are at the highest risk for stroke, increases stroke risk and complications. Educating the public about stroke symptoms and responses is essential for prevention. Therefore, a valid and reliable tool to assess hypertensive patients' stroke knowledge is important for improving long-term outcomes. This research aims to adapt the Stroke Knowledge Test into Turkish and evaluate its validity and reliability in hypertensive patients.
