A Questionnaire-Based Evaluation of Knowledge Recall, Application, and Action Awareness After Viewing the FAST BEE Stroke Education Video
A Questionnaire-Based Evaluation of Knowledge Recall, Application, and Action Awareness After Viewing the FAST BEE Stroke Education Video
This online study evaluates immediate learning outcomes after viewing a short animated FAST BEE stroke-education video (1 minute 51 seconds). After providing electronic consent (and for adolescents aged 13-17 years, parental/guardian consent plus participant assent), participants will watch the video and complete a brief online questionnaire.
The questionnaire assesses (1) recall of FAST BEE elements, (2) ability to apply FAST BEE to a stroke scenario involving balance and double vision, and (3) intention to take emergency action (calling emergency services).
Traditional stroke-recognition campaigns commonly teach the FAST mnemonic (Face, Arm, Speech, Time to call emergency services). While FAST captures frequent stroke presentations, it may not highlight symptoms that can occur in posterior circulation strokes, such as sudden imbalance (ataxia/vertigo) or visual disturbance (blurred vision/double vision). The FAST BEE mnemonic (Face, Arm, Speech, Time, Balance, Eyes, Emergency) was developed by the World Stroke Organization Prehospital Care Task Force to address this gap by adding Balance and Eyes checks and reinforcing emergency action.
This study is an educational, minimal-risk evaluation using an ultra-brief (1 minute 51 seconds) animated FAST BEE video embedded in an online survey to standardise exposure and assess immediate learning outcomes. The study is conducted via institutional Google Forms as an online-only activity.
Inclusion Criteria:
Adults (aged ≥18)who are able to give consent.
Ability to view and understand the video (in English) and complete the online
Minors (<18 years, >13 years) only if accompanied by documented parental/guardian consent and child assent, in accordance with ICMR guidelines.
Exclusion Criteria:
Declines participation or exits before completing the survey.
Duplicate or blank submissions: responses with identical timestamps/data or >50% missing primary endpoint items will be removed.
For minors: lack of parental consent or child assent.
