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.

The future has arrived Heart Attack and Stroke Prevention

I think this is not supported by any science yet.

The future has arrived. Thats good news for Amy Doneen, a nurse practitioner at the Heart Attack and Stroke Prevention Clinic in Spokane, Washington. We now have one more tool in the tool belt, says Doneen, whose work at the clinic is geared towards, as the name suggests, preventing patients from suffering from heart attacks, stroke and diabetes. The tool Doneen has added to her tool belt is deCODEme, a genetic screening test conducted by deCODE genetics. The deCODEme test, which requires patients to simply swab saliva from the inside of their cheek and then send it off to deCODE for DNA analysis, scans an individuals genome for genetic markers linked to 30 different diseases, such as heart disease and Type 2 diabetes.

deCODEme and its questionable disease-risk predictions
http://venturebeat.com/2008/01/26/decodeme-and-its-questionable-disease-risk-predictions/

A few days ago, I noted that deCODEme, the personal-genomics spinoff of Iceland’s deCODE Genetics, looks to be offering disease-risk predictions based on surprisingly thin evidence. I looked into it a little more deeply, and while I’m not a geneticist or even a close approximation thereof, I’m still a little taken aback by how little deCODEme currently seems to be flying on where many of these conditions are concerned

Or you could look at the deCODEme site itself:
