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.

WHAT IS A CERTIFIED STROKE REHABILITATION SPECIALIST?

By Stephan Page, which is good. But you can easily stump him with one question. One year post stroke; What therapy will  relocate functions that were in the dead brain area? Guaranteed recovery?
Hell you can read my whole blog and get just as useful information.

Stephen J. Page, Ph.D., M.S., MOT, OTR.L, FAHA is an Associate Professor in the College of Medicine at
The Ohio State University. For over a decade, Dr. Page and his team have developed and tested clinical stroke
therapies, including “first ever” work on modified constraint-induced movement therapy, mental imagery/mental
practice, portable robotics, and electrical stimulation neuroprosthetics. Dr. Page has instructed highly rated live
and online stroke seminars to over 1000 therapists in almost every state for the past 8 years, and has been recognized
for his work and professional contributions by the Ohio Physical Therapy Association, the Ohio Occupational Therapy
Association, The American Occupational Therapy Association, and the American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine.
He has published over 85 peer reviewed articles, given over 150 national and international presentations, and held
uninterrupted research funding for clinical stroke studies for over a decade.


But has he gotten a majority of patients to full recovery?

  1. You're basically saying that you can "stump" Dr. Page with the question as to what therapies work > 1 year post stroke.

    Have you read any of his research or attended any of his seminars?! Almost all of his work is in people > 1 year post stroke, and he speaks extensively of the "6 month myth" in virtually all of his talks.

    2. Well you can easily prove me wrong by pointing to exact stroke protocols that lead to recovery but you didn't because there aren't any. The responsibility for that lies on stroke medical professionals not stroke survivors. Notice the word dead brain and protocols NOT guidelines.
      Try again.
