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.

Can Specialised Electronic Musical Instruments Aid Stroke Rehabilitation?

Nothing objective seemed to be measured in this research, what a waste.

Stroke patients often have limited access to rehabilitation after discharge from hospital leaving them
to self-regulate their recovery. Previous research has indicated that several musical approaches can be
used effectively in stroke rehabilitation. Stroke patients (n = 43), between 6 months and 19 years
post-stroke, took part in specially created workshops playing music, both in groups and individually,
using a number of digital musical interfaces. Feedback forms were completed by all participants,
which helped to develop the prototypes and gain insights into the potential benefits of music making
for rehabilitation. 93% of participants stated they thought that the music workshops were potentially
beneficial for their rehabilitation. The research project contributes to the field of HCI by exploring
the role of computer based systems in stroke rehabilitation.
