This study investigated the current status of nutrition literacy and related influencing factors in stroke patients, with a view to providing a reference for the development of targeted interventions.
Cross-sectional study.
A convenience sampling method was used to select 342 stroke patients from June to November 2024 as the study population, and a cross-sectional survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, Nutrition Literacy Scale, Herth Hope Scale, Chronic Disease Self-Efficacy Scale and Social Support Rating Scale. Descriptive analysis, independent samples t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used for data analysis.
The results showed that the nutrition literacy score of stroke patients was 122.24 ± 16.66, and gender, age, education level, monthly per capita family income, nutrition education, hope level, self-efficacy and social support were the factors affecting the nutrition literacy of stroke patients (all p < 0.05).
According to the study, stroke patients' nutrition literacy has to be raised, and medical practitioners should create focused intervention plans to raise patients' nutrition literacy levels.
Healthcare professionals should assess the level of nutritional literacy in order to provide targeted interventions. The establishment of a multidisciplinary care team and implementation of long-term nutritional management after stroke are essential to reduce stroke recurrence and mortality.
The study adhered to the STROBE checklist.
No patient or public contribution.
