TI  - Knowledge, Attitude and Practice of the Community General Practice Teams on 
      Dysphagia Complicated with Aspiration Pneumonia after Stroke.

AB  - This cross-sectional study investigated the knowledge, attitude and practice 
      (KAP) of community general practice (GP) team members on dysphagia complicated 
      with aspiration pneumonia after stroke in Shanghai between October 2022 and 
      November 2022 using a self-administered questionnaire. A total of 551 
      questionnaires were collected (mean age: 37.59 +/- 8.86 years, 443 (80.40%) 
      females), including 383 (69.51%) physicians. The mean KAP scores were 6.30 +/- 1.54 
      (possible range: 0-12), 40.32 +/- 5.11 (possible range: 9-45), and 72.54 +/- 13.99 
      (possible range: 18-90), respectively. Multivariable linear regression analyses 
      suggested that attitude (Coef = 1.29, 95%CI: 1.09-1.50), and holding research 
      funding (Coef = -2.70, 95%CI: -5.00--0.50) were significantly associated with 
      practice toward dysphagia complicated with aspiration pneumonia after stroke of 
      community GP team members. The structural equation model (SEM) indicated that 
      knowledge had a direct influence on attitude (beta = 2.029, p < 0.001) and attitude 
      had a direct impact on practice (beta = 0.710, p < 0.001). Additionally, knowledge 
      exerted both direct (beta = 0.935, p = 0.016) and indirect effects (beta = 1.442, p < 
      0.001) on practice. In conclusion, this study showed that the community GP team 
      members had poor knowledge, favorable attitudes, and proactive practices. 
      Education and training on the management of dysphagia complicated with aspiration 
      pneumonia after stroke are urgently needed.
