🧠 This , there's something important to know: mental health and stroke risk are connected.

Both sudden stress and long-term stress can increase the chance of having a stroke. Depression and anxiety are also linked to higher stroke risk, through physiological changes in the body and through the lifestyle habits they can cause, such as poor sleep, inactivity and smoking.

Mental health conditions are among the 10 potentially modifiable risk factors linked to around 80% of strokes. That makes looking after your mental health a powerful thing you can do for your brain.

Seeking support, staying connected and making small lifestyle changes can all make a difference.

Do you work in stroke care? We need 15 minutes of your time.

The Post-Stroke Checklist is a validated, guideline-supported tool for assessing stroke survivors' needs after a stroke. It is freely available, but its use varies widely between countries and care settings.

This global survey from the World Stroke Organization asks why. They want to hear from clinicians, stroke coordinators, rehabilitation specialists, researchers and anyone else involved in post-stroke care, whether you use the checklist or not.

The survey is exploring:
- how the checklist is used in practice
- what helps or blocks its use
- differences between specialties, regions and health systems
- how to improve support for survivors after discharge

Your input could shape clinical practice around the world 👉 https://linkly.link/2uVfu
