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.

"Stroke alert: Take action!" - Mineola, NY seminar

Go to it and see if they talk about anything other than the stupid generic prevention ideas.

According to the National Stroke Association(r), about 80% of strokes are preventable. To learn the latest information about stroke prevention guidelines, the public is invited to attend Winthrop-University Hospital's Health Update for Seniors free seminar, "Stroke Alert: Take Action!," on Wednesday, October 8, 2014, at 1:15 PM. It will be held at the Mineola Community Center, 155 Washington Avenue in Mineola (one block south of Jericho Turnpike and one block east of Mineola Boulevard), and will focus on how individuals can reduce their risk, as well as identify the warning signs of a stroke and understand the significance of taking immediate action if symptoms occur.
Kathleen Michel, CNRN, MSN, FNPBC, Administrative Director and Coordinator of the Cerebrovascular Program at Winthrop, will explain the mechanisms of a stroke, risk factors and the latest advances in treatment. A question and answer period will be included. Free parking is adjacent to the building. Metered parking is available across the street. Seating is limited and reservations are required. To reserve a space, please call (516) 663-3916.
