RESUMEN
Objective:This study aimed to analyze and summarize the implementation of the primary prevention program for stroke in Shanghai rural community and evaluate its preventive effect.Methods:A cluster sampling method was used to select approximately 50 000 community natural population from a town in Fengxian District of Shanghai. A primary stroke prevention program was established and implemented in the community from 2008 to 2010 and from 2012 to 2015. The prevention program inclueded stroke health education for the whole population, screening of high risk population of stroke, and therapeutic intervention and management plan for individuals aged≥50 years. The intervention measures were followed up every 2 months. From 2008 to 2015, new stroke cases were monitored dynamically and reviewed annually with classification of stroke diagnosis. The effect of community primary prevention of stroke program was evaluated by the dynamic changes in stroke incidence. Results:From 2008 to 2015, a total of 422 600 individuals were monitored, including 20 500 men and 217 600 women. In 2008, 7 828 individuals were screened and 2 129 individuals were at high risk of stroke were screened, with a high risk rate of 27.2%. In 2012, 2 877 individuals were screened, and 725 individuals were at high risk of stroke were screened, with a high risk rate of 25.2%. The standardized incidence of stroke in this community was 158.1, 105.4, 86.6, 77.6, 89.3, 77.4, 50.7, and 42.3 per 100 000 respectively. The overall incidence image roughly showed a downward trend except 2012(trend test P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the incidence of stroke between men and women in each year. The incidence of stroke increased significantly with age (trend test P<0.01). The age composition of stroke patients is slightly different between different sexes. The proportion of male patients with stroke aged <70 years was significantly higher than that of female patients with stroke, while the proportion of female patients with stroke age>70 years was significantly higher than that of male patients with stroke ( P<0 .01). Cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral infarction, and subarachnoid hemorrhage accounted for 20.76%, 75.14%, and 4.10%, respectively. Conclusion:Based on lifestyle intervention and treatment and control of risk factors, screening high-risk individuals for therapeutic intervention in community population can significantly reduce the incidence of stroke.
