Evaluate the stroke awareness of Palestinian undergraduate health students: A cross-sectional study on risk factors and warning signs
The current findings highlight the need for focused educational interventions, as medical students have greater awareness of stroke than their peers. Enhancing stroke awareness among health students is essential for facilitating early diagnosis and proper healthcare aid. Thus, targeting gaps in knowledge among health students should be part of broader efforts to improve stroke awareness.
