World Stroke Organization (WSO):

Global Stroke Fact Sheet 2022

Purpose:

Data sources:

The World Stroke Organization overviews the best available scientific evidence to provide reliable and up to date data on stroke and its impact around the world.
Using reliable and consistent stroke data to support stroke advocacy helps to build awareness of the scale of the disease and supports the call for urgent action at global,
regional and national levels. This document provides information that can be used to inform communication with internal and external stroke stakeholders.
All statistics have been reviewed and approved for use by the WSO Executive Committee.

These values have all been extracted from the most current Global Burden of Disease Stroke Statistics
Worldwide for the year 2019
(http://ghdx.healthdata.org/gbd-results-tool).
They will be reviewed and updated by the WSO executive committee on an annual basis as appropriate.

Notes:
* (Uncertainty Interval [UI] represents a range of values that reflects the certainty of an estimate. In GBD, every estimate is calculated 1,000 times, each time sampling from distributions rather than point estimates for data inputs, data transformations and model choice.
The 95th uncertainty interval is determined by the 25th and 975th value of the 1,000 values after ordering them from smallest to largest. Larger uncertainty intervals can result from limited data availability, small studies,
and conflicting data, while smaller uncertainty intervals can result from extensive data availability, large studies, and data that are consistent across sources)
