简要总结
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a one-week multifaceted Stroke Urgency Recognition, and Action Awareness (SURA'A) consultation-based campaign in increasing stroke awareness and the intention to seek emergency medical help among adults. The research will be conducted at primary health care centers to determine if this specific educational approach can improve the community's response to stroke symptoms.

This research is approved by the Research Ethical Approval Committee at the University of Baghdad, College of Nursing.
