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.

Developing the next generation of stroke research leaders

The leaders are out there in the survivor population, the doctors have totally failed us in getting anywhere useful about stroke rehab.

My reply to this blog, awaiting moderation.
All we really have to do is use the existing research in the last 5 years and create protocols that will save neurons from the cascade of death. If you  are following research at all these are easily recognizable.
1. Statins.
tested in rats from 2003
Or,
tested in humans, March, 2011

2. Fish oil.
     either by injection
     or a feeding tube
3.  Leg compressions
4. anti-depressants -  real ones
5. music listening
6. Sensation overload
   the human equivalent of rat whisker stimulation.
7. Coffee - I want many cups a day
Coffee may help perk up your blood vessels

    reduce my dementia chances
delay my Alzheimers chances
reduce my Parkinsons risk
8. CerAxon

9.  Peptide application
10. Action observation
 Videos of everything from walking, running, jumping to finger ballet, baseball throwing, piano playing, eating. Every minute of the day not spent in traditional rehab should be watching videos, including during meals,  that would work on multitasking.

11.  bFGF administered intravenously
12. Viagra - Ladies, I don't know how you're going to convince your doctor why you need this, maybe say its for your spouse and you want to make sure your lady parts are still working. Only tested in rats.
13.  Training in lucid dreaming.
14.  Eptifibatide
15.  dietary olive leaf extract
16. ebselen - neuroprotective treatment? within 48 hours
17.  diabetes drug linagliptin
18. Etazolate, an α-secretase activator
19.  Glibenclamide - administered intravenously 6, 12, and 24 hours after reperfusion
20.   Paeoniflorin (PF) - PF treatment for 14 days
21.  administration of nontoxic carbon particles
22.  Ibuprofen
23.  Ceria nanoparticles
24.  Head-of-Bed Optimization of Elevation
25.   antibiotic minocycline
26.   neurotransmitter precursor levodopa
27.   Inhalation of nitric oxide
28.  old flu drug amantadine
29.  Melatonin
30.   opiate antagonists — Effects of exogenous antagonists and dynorphin
What is the downside of doing all of these to save trillions of neurons from dying?
