US-National Survey of Stroke Risk Awareness Among Women

American Heart Association and American Stroke Association National Survey of Stroke Risk Awareness Among Women -- Ferris et al. 111 (10): 1321 -- Circulation
Conclusions— Results of this national survey document that awareness and knowledge about stroke is suboptimal among women, especially among racial/ethnic minorities, who are at highest risk. These data support the need for targeted educational programs about stroke risk and symptoms and underscore the importance of public health programs to improve awareness of stroke among women.
