Funded Activity Summary

Stroke is common, occurring in approximately 50,000 Australians each year. About a third of people with stroke die within the first 12 months but we do not know how many survive or how well they manage in the longer term. We aim to interview 10-year survivors of stroke to assess how much help they need to undertake everyday activities, and how much the stroke is costing the Australian community. This information will help us in planning the health care needs for stroke patients in future years.
