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.

Deans' stroke rehabilitation outline

Once I got over 300 posts I knew I needed to put all of them together into an outline, not only for others but for myself. I was losing track of all the ideas generated. This is the result. Only 431 posts so far. I didn't realize I was so verbose.

If you are a newbie, you probably want to intelligently discuss next steps with your doctor, these two posts will help with that.
What my doctor should have told me about stroke recovery:
http://oc1dean.blogspot.com/2010/08/what-my-doctor-should-have-told-me.html
Interviewing your stroke rehab doctor:
http://oc1dean.blogspot.com/2010/11/interviewing-your-stroke-rehab-doctor.html
If you are working with a therapist ask about compensation vs. recovery:
http://oc1dean.blogspot.com/2010/10/compensation-vs-recovery.html
If you are a fact-based person and are able to read, stroke books listed here; I would get a piece or two of information from each one.
http://oc1dean.blogspot.com/2011/05/my-stroke-book-reading-list.html
http://oc1dean.blogspot.com/2010/10/book-reading-list.html
If you want to influence the future; letter to president, letters to NSA, ASA, WSO,NINDS;
http://oc1dean.blogspot.com/2010/09/letter-to-president.html
http://oc1dean.blogspot.com/2010/09/letter-to-international-jornal-of.html
http://oc1dean.blogspot.com/2010/11/emails-to-nsa-stroke-rehab-failures.html
Nothing to the ASA or NINDS yet

If you think I'm missing a section, let me know. Some posts are in multiple sections
Work in progress, when this line is gone it is complete.

  1. Wow ... lots of work there Dean.

    Might I suggest that you set this index up as a blogger "Page" or put a link to this post somewhere prominent at the top of your sidebar? I went looking for something specific on your blog, not that long ago, and gave up so I think this kind of listing is a very good idea.
