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 Advanced Curriculum Program: Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation

If you have Afib and want to know what your doctor should be Linkdoing for you.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common form of arrhythmia and

one of the leading causes of thromboembolic stroke. Because its

prevalence increases with age, it is estimated that more than 6

million individuals will be affected with AF by 2050. It is critical

that cardiologists and other clinicians are able to accurately

assess and manage stroke risk, identify and employ effective

treatment strategies,and improve long-term outcomes

in their patients.

The Advanced Curriculum Program: Stroke Prevention in Atrial

Fibrillation provides state-of-the-science information

and practical guidance to improve the evaluation of stroke risk

and appropriate use of antithrombotic therapies for stroke prevention

in patients with AF. This CME/CE program, co-sponsored by USF

Health and Projects In Knowledge, offers 10 engaging activities,

including six article reviews, three case-based

e-newsletters with audio, and an on-demand webcast.
