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.

Abstract: This journal issue explores the theme of medical phenomenology and stroke rehabilitation. The theme is introduced by a brief summary and overview of phenomenology as a branch of philosophy whose focus is the development of methodology for describing day-to-day human experience. The articles that follow then consider the application of this philosophical approach to medicine in general and stroke rehabilitation in particular. Phenomenology helps clinicians understand the importance of narrative, the process of adaptation at the level of the integrated whole person, and the important role of context in determining how recovery takes place. Individual articles may be available for document delivery under accession numbers J61565 through J61578.
Descriptor Terms: CHRONIC ILLNESS, HOLISM, PHILOSOPHY, REHABILITATION, STROKE
