On Wednesday 12 October at 14:00, Vibe Bolvig Hyldgård defends her PhD dissertation entitled "Inequality in quality of care for Danish stroke patients".

To ensure easy and equal access to healthcare is an essential objective in the Danish healthcare system. In this PhD project we studied how well the Danish healthcare system manages to do so in the care for stroke patients.

Focusing on unequal quality of care we have investigated the impact of healthy behavior, the development over time, the importance of how we measure and present inequality findings, and finally how all this effects the patients’ prognosis.

The summary is written by the PhD student.

The defence is public and takes place in Samfundsmedicinsk Auditorium (building 1262), Aarhus University, Bartholins Allé 2, 8000 Aarhus C. Please read the attached press release for more information.
