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.

Restoring gut bacteria to youthful age linked to improved stroke recovery in mice

Should we be getting young blood and young gut bacteria to help our recovery? Whom is going to write up a stroke protocol on this? This will never get done because we have NO stroke leadership or strategy. You, your children and grandchildren will be screwed when the next stroke occurs.

Restoring microorganisms in the gut to a youthful age was linked to improved stroke recovery in old mice, according to a new study presented at the American Stroke Association’s International Stroke Conference 2016.
Noting that different bacteria present in the gut change with age, researchers from the University of Connecticut in Mansfield, Connecticut, used fecal transplants to deliver a “young” set of bacteria to mice that were 18 to 20 months old as well as to mice just 3 or 4 months old, while another group of mice received an “aged” set of bacteria in each of those two age groups. The mice were first given an antibiotic to suppress their own microbial makeups and allow the new sets of gut bacteria to flourish.
Follow-up behavioral and neurological tests showed that older mice with “young” sets of bacteria recovered from the induced stroke better than their peers with “aged” bacteria. Meanwhile, death rates after the stroke were particularly high — exceeding 50 percent — in young mice with “aged” bacterial makeups, researchers said.
