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.

Olszewski and Baxter's Cytoarchitecture of the Human Brainstem, 3rd

If you had a brainstem stroke have your doctor explain exactly what areas were damaged, how badly, and what is being done to bring them back. If your doctor can't do that I guess you'll have to get this book and diagnose yourself.

A new comprehensive edition of a standard work, detailing and illustrating the organization, structure, function and connectivity of all individual brainstem nuclei. For neuroscientists and neurologists this atlas provides an invaluable and complete source of reference for both their scientific research and everyday clinical practice.
The new revised and extended edition of this standard work retains all he neurons of each nucleus. Many structural diff erences are described in neuronal groups, indicating as yet unrecognized functional diff erences. Furthermore, unique details of the neuronal organization and cytoarchitecture are featured, providing clues to the functional properties of the cell groups and stimulating research projects. Nomenclature and nuclear borders have been updated, in addition the text now contains new sections presenting an up-to-date summary of the functional neuroanatomy of each nucleus.
For neuroscientists and neurologists this atlas provides an invaluable and complete source of reference for both their scientifi c research and everyday clinical practice. Neuropathologists, neuroradiologists, neuropsychologists, neurosurgeons, physiologists and physicians will fi nd the combination of low-power brainstem imaging with cytological, physiological and neuroanatomical data highly relevant. In addition, the atlas off ers researchers in other disciplines the opportunity to discover new correlations between structure and function, outlining new functional regions in the brainstem.
