    Europe is failing to provide adequate stroke care and support
    The scale of stroke care crisis is laid bare by new data release

    New data collected as part of the Stroke Action Plan for Europe (SAP-E) Stroke Service Tracker reveals the
    gross inequity of access to care and support for stroke patients and stroke survivors across Europe.

    The SAP-E was launched in 2018 to provide a framework for European governments to improve stroke care
    and support for all European citizens. As part of this plan, data from 36 countries across Europe, covering
    12 key areas of improvement, has been collected in and is available via the SAP-E website.
