Community Engagement for Early Recognition and Immediate Action in Stroke

Northwestern University·observational·Posted Nov 25, 2014·Updated Sep 9, 2019

In Brief

An observational study evaluating Community-based Stroke Awareness Program for Ischemic Stroke. Completed, enrolled 1,322 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The investigators plan to develop and adapt a community-partnered intervention using community health promoters ("Stroke Promoters") to deliver messaging regarding stroke symptom awareness and the need for calling 911 after stroke onset. The study investigators will implement this intervention in south side Chicago communities and measure the impact on symptom onset to hospital arrival times and EMS utilization using an interrupted time-series analysis.

Interventions

Community-based Stroke Awareness Programbehavioral

A culturally-adapted stroke awareness and action program will be delivered by trained Stroke Promoters in the targeted neighborhoods in the south side of Chicago. Community Stroke Promoters will be trained on 1) the benefits of early recognition and EMS utilization for stroke (i.e. stroke centers, tPA), 2) culturally-adapted solutions to current barriers (i.e. misperceptions about vulnerability, severity, mistrust, costs), and 3) cues to aid in stroke recognition and immediate action. The intervention will take place at community settings throughout a 1-year period.
