But the suggested endpoints of full consciousness are way too general to tell if this works to improve recovery of lost functions. More research needed that will never be done because we have NO fucking strategy or leadership.

Abstract: Study investigated whether the number of
neurostimulants received during rehabilitation was associated with
recovery of full consciousness or improved neurobehavioral function
after severe brain injury (BI). Data from 115 participants were
extracted from a neurobehavioral observational study database.
Univariate optimal data analysis was conducted to determine if the
number of neurostimulants influenced classification of four outcomes:
recovery of full consciousness during rehabilitation, recovery of full
consciousness within one year of injury, and meaningful neurobehavioral
improvement during rehabilitation defined as either at least a 4.7 unit
(minimal detectable change) or 2.58 unit (minimal clinically important
difference) gain on the Disorders of Consciousness Scale-25 (DOCS-25).
The results indicated that the number of neurostimulants was not
significantly associated with recovery of full consciousness during
rehabilitation, within one year of injury, or meaningful neurobehavioral
improvement using the DOCS-25. Receiving multiple neurostimulants
during rehabilitation may not influence recovery of full consciousness
or meaningful neurobehavioral improvement. Given costs associated with
additional medication, future research is needed to guide physicians
about the merits of prescribing multiple neurostimulants during
rehabilitation after severe BI.

Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 28,987 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke.DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER, BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
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.
