Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Acute stroke treatment options - Cleveland Clinic

From the web chats put on by the Cleveland clinic
http://www.clevelandclinic.org/health/chatreg/ChatPage.aspx?ChatId=1229

Acute Stroke Treatment Options
A stroke, or "brain attack," occurs when the blood supply is cut off from part of the brain. When this happens, the blood-deprived brain loses its supply of oxygen and nutrients. When the brain is deprived of blood for even a few minutes, it begins to die. Immediate treatment of a stroke may limit or prevent brain damage. Take advantage of this chat to speak to a Cleveland Clinic interventional neurologist, Gabor Toth, MD about techniques, medications and treatment options when acute stroke occurs.

I have tried to get into these several times but have been unsuccessful. For this one I will have lots of questions on the future of acute stroke rehab. If you want you can grab some of my ideas posted here and ask them also.
