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.

Post-Stroke Spasticity: A Case-Based Series

A continuing Medical education series from the National Stroke Association. You can see that they still know absolutely nothing about how to cure spasticity. Nothing on the efficacy rate for cures.
http://www.stroke.org/we-can-help/healthcare-professionals/improve-your-skills/post-stroke-programs/post-stroke-spasticity
The goal of the Post-Stroke Spasticity: A Case-Based Series Stroke Clinical Updates activity is to increase clinician knowledge, diagnosis, and treatment of post-stroke spasticity.
As a result of this activity, the participant should be better able to:
  • Discuss the functional impact of post-stroke spasticity on recovery and rehabilitation
  • Apply evidence-based knowledge to diagnose and assess post-stroke spasticity
  • Identify evidence-based management strategies for post-stroke spasticity
  • Describe how to incorporate new knowledge and expertise around diagnosis and management of post-stroke spasticity into their respective clinical practice
Failure, failure, failure.
