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.

Engaging with FDA: A Guide for Foundation Funders of Research

I bet the Alzheimers association and Michael J. Fox for Parkinsons are following these guidelines. Innovative stroke associations would be well served to attend.

Description:
Patient-driven foundations that fund medical research are increasingly seeking to productively engage with the Food & Drug Administration (FDA), to ensure that regulators understand the needs of patients and have the knowledge they need to review and approve treatments that are important to patients. What can be achieved by building relationships with and working more closely with the FDA? What unique assets can patient groups bring to the table? How should you prepare, and what challenges can you expect?

Learn from the experiences of senior leaders of two foundations that are pioneers in engaging in product development and in working with the FDA:
• Mary B. Dwight, Vice President of Government Affairs, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation
• Cynthia Rice, Vice President of Government Relations, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation

This free Webinar is part of FasterCures’ Webinar series designed to spotlight innovative approaches to disease research.
