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.

ARMStrokes: A Mobile App for Everyday Stroke Rehabilitation

I'm sure you'll have to get this thru your doctor. You wouldn't want to take your own initiative about your recovery because your ideas might conflict with your doctors ideas on getting you to 100% recovery. You do have a stroke protocol to get you to 100% recovery ? DON'T YOU?

In this paper, we present a novel smartphone-based rehabilitation approach called ARMStrokes
that provides real-time support for stroke survivors to complete rehabilitation exercises for upper
extremity recovery. ARMStrokes allows stroke survivors to exercise through interactive games
anytime and anywhere and receive instant feedback about the quality of their performance.
Stroke survivors can also communicate with their therapists or physicians through the
supporting web-based platform. Focus groups involving stroke survivors, caregivers, and
therapists have been conducted to evaluate the system and the feedback is highly positive.
