Abstract
This study was developed to explore the efficacy of introducing the Amharic phrase "Ye-Angol Tikat," which translates to "brain attack" in English, as a mechanism to enhance stroke education among the Amharic-speaking Ethiopian community.A prospective, nonrandomized, survey was completed by 294 Amharic-speaking persons. The survey explored support and desire for a culturally appropriate terminology for stroke.Most of the participants (93%) support the need for an Amharic term to describe stroke.This pilot project demonstrates a strong support for a descriptive and standardized terminology for stroke within the Amharic-speaking community.
