Abstract

Stroke is a common cause of disability that requires proper and ongoing care. To reduce mortality, reduce disability and promote rehabilitation. If not properly cared for, it can cause post-stroke fatigue, which is a major obstacle to inefficient recovery. Therefore, the management of fatigue in patients with acute stroke is of great importance.

In this study, the study authors selected cases of acute stroke patients with fatigue who were assessed and developed a nursing care plan for managing fatigue using empirical evidence and applied theory. In behavior modification that focuses on education about fatigue management related to sleep, nutrition, and physical activity, together with building confidence in walking. The results of nursing showed that it could reduce the level of fatigue and increase physical ability in acute stroke patients.
