Using Vitamin D Supplement as an Adjunct Therapy for Treating Stroke
Topic
A poor vitamin D leads to increased risks of stroke and poor health outcomes among post-stroke patients. This is important because stroke has been established as the third highest cause of death and among the leading in causing disability among patients. Owing to its high incidence, it is important to establish approaches of preventing and treating stroke so as to help in reduction of the related mortality, morbidity, and healthcare costs.
Significance
Morbidity; the study shows how vitamin D supplement can be used as an adjunct therapy for treating stroke and preventing stroke in high-risk patients (Ghaderi, Rasouli-Azad, Farhadi, Mirhosseini, Motmaen, Pishyareh, & Asemi, 2020).
Improved healthcare outcomes; the findings of the study are used to recommend the use of vitamin D supplement in treating stroke and preventing stroke among high-risk individuals (Ghaderi, Rasouli-Azad, Farhadi, Mirhosseini, Motmaen, Pishyareh, & Asemi, 2020).
Reduced healthcare costs; this is an effective and inexpensive way of treating stroke and curbing its increasing prevalence (Yosaee, Soltani, Esteghamati, Motevalian, Tehrani-Doost, Clark, & Jazayeri, 2020).
Contribution to future and further research; the study also lays impetus for future, further study on the subject (Yosaee, Soltani, Esteghamati, Motevalian, Tehrani-Doost, Clark, & Jazayeri, 2020).
