Deans' stroke musings: United States organization takes first place for World Stroke campaign

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.

United States organization takes first place for World Stroke campaign

Big f*cking whoopee.
It was just a damned lazy press campaign. They didn't solve any of the problems in stroke.
Until the complete stroke medical world gets destroyed and recreated with survivors in charge will anything useful get done. They've had decades to prove their incompetence.

The American Heart Association/American Stroke Association topped entries from 44 other countries to earn the World Stroke Organization’s First Place “Gold Award” for World Stroke Day 2014.
A consortium of Brazilian stroke societies places second and the Pakistan Stroke Society and NARC, third.
Through its Together to End Stroke initiative, sponsored by Covidien, the American Stroke Association leveraged a thoughtful mix of social and traditional media tactics around World Stroke Day to help the public remember the most common stroke warning signs and how to respond.
