Summary

Our primary goal is to study temporal trends in the incidence rate, causes, treatment, and outcome of stroke among a large biracial metropolitan population of 1,349,351, of whom 215,611 (15%) are black (2000 Census). Such data are critical for the planning, intervention, and evaluation of public health efforts to decrease the mortality and morbidity due to stroke in the United States.

We have completed this goal for 1993-94, 1999, 2005, 2010 and 2015. We are in the process of collecting this data for 2020. In the 2020 study period we will also be ascertaining 3 year recurrence rates for all incident stroke events.
