KNOWLEDGE AND AWARENESS OF EARLY STROKE SIGNS: AN ANALYTICAL REVIEW Ibrahim Khalid Alruzayhi
Present study sought to provide a research-based evidence regarding knowledge and awareness of early stroke signs via a structured analytical review of the previous studies.
This study was an analytical review that screened the previous studies published between 2018 and 2023 using a combination of the following keywords” Stroke, Knowledge, early signs, awareness, and signs and symptoms”. This review included studies published in English within the last five years and discussing similar outcome.
A total of five studies were included in this structured analytical review. The included studies provided variation in the findings related to the knowledge and awareness about early signs of stroke. However, all of the studies stressed the significance of designing interventional educational programs that provide tailored education about early signs of stroke based on individuals’ socioeconomic and demographic characteristics.
The study concluded that knowledge and awareness about early signs of stroke is an issue that requires more attention from the researchers at the global level as varied outcomes were reported and no evidences are retrieved about the level of knowledge and awareness about early signs of stroke.
