Abstract
This review of literature explores various interventions that promote stroke awareness and knowledge of stroke warning signs in individuals. The review looks at the differences and similarities in several identified interventions, including mass media, printed materials, presentations, children's programs, and stroke screenings. An assessment of these 5 interventions provides information on cost, personnel involved, number of persons reached, and knowledge retention from each program. Programs reviewed using the identified types of interventions demonstrate the benefits and challenges of each and enable program developers to coordinate programs based on these evaluations.
