Abstract
In 2008, the start of the WSO ABC Education Program Stroke Management in Vietnam was reported in the International Journal of Stroke (1). Now the successful ending of this program is reported. Until the end of 2011 the trainings took place in 58 cities and provinces with 8.596 doctors participating. The attending doctors received a Certificate signed by the WSO and the Ministry of Health in Hanoi, Vietnam. In 2008 there was virtually no structures stroke care existing in Vietnam. Today, stroke is recognized as a separate disease by most doctors.
