Stroke Support Data

Which data sources and/or registries are available for tracking and monitoring stroke incidence rates and support services?

The choice of stroke registries used for collecting and analysing stroke care data matters because it can affect the accuracy and completeness of the data, which in turn can impact the quality of care and outcomes for stroke patients. It’s important to use comprehensive, accurate, and widely-used registries to ensure that the data collected can be used to improve stroke care and outcomes.
