Educational inequalities in stroke knowledge and symptom recognition following a national Danish stroke campaign: a cross-sectional study

Initiation of a national stroke campaign was associated with improved knowledge of stroke and symptom recognition. Among individuals with lower educational level the association between campaign recall and recognition of stroke symptoms appeared weaker. The impact of educational levels may be considered in the design of future stroke campaigns. Whether stroke recognition and knowledge of correct call-to-action translate into appropriate responses remains to be fully evaluated.
