So contact him and give him the ideas on these 177 hyperacute therapies. Less damage means better recoveries. And he can be hailed as a hero for reducing the disability from stroke. This is way too important to leave to the medical blokes, they know way too little about the issue.

Professor Tony Rudd, consultant stroke physician at St Thomas' Hospital,
has been appointed as NHS England's national clinical director for
stroke.
Professor Rudd said: "I'm really looking forward to being involved in improving stroke care across the country.
"I want to ensure that patients receive the best possible care so
that they can live long and healthy lives despite the effects of a
stroke."
In his new role he will be involved in making national decisions and
developing policies for the care of people who have suffered a stroke.
Professor Rudd has worked at Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation
Trust since 1988 initially as a consultant geriatrician. In 2002 he
began to focus solely on stroke and improving the care provided to these
patients.
Professor Rudd is also the London clinical director for stroke, leads
the stroke programme at the Royal College of Physicians, is vice
chairman of the Stroke Association, and was a member of the group that
developed the national stroke strategy at the Department of Health in
2007.
St Thomas' Hospital is home to an acute stroke unit which helps adult patients recover from a stroke after they have received emergency care.
On the unit, patients are treated by a wide range of staff including
physiotherapists, occupational therapists, dietitians, speech and
language therapists, doctors and nurses.
The Evelina London Children's Hospital at St Thomas' offers the only children's stroke rehabilitation service in the country.
Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 28,972 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke.DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER, BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
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.
