Abstract：Objective To study the transitional care from the family doctor responsibility system in community cerebral ischaemic stroke in elderly patients. Methods One-hundred patients with cerebral ischaemic stroke were randomly divided into two groups. The control group patients were treated traditionally for stroke, and the intervention group patients were treated with the transitional care of the family doctor responsibility system. The qualified rate of control of the cerebral ischaemic stroke recurrence-related risk factors was compared in the two groups to identify differences. Results After six months, in the intervention group, the qualified rates of control in the patients' drugs use, treatment compliance and cerebral ischaemic stroke recurrence-related risk factors including blood pressure (BP),fasting blood glucose (FB),blood lipids,blood uric acid,homocysteine levels (HCY),smoking cessation,drinking limitation, and body mass index(BMI)were higher than the control group(P < 0.05), with a stroke recurrence rate of 2% compared with 14% in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion The transitional care of the family doctor responsibility system can improve drug use, treatment compliance, and cerebral ischaemic stroke recurrence-related risk factors and decrease recurrence in community cerebral ischaemic stroke in elderly patients.
