Deans' stroke musings: World Stroke Congress to begin tomorrow

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.

World Stroke Congress to begin tomorrow

I bet not one fucking thing coming out of there will be useful to survivors. The sessions don't seem to have anything to do with rehab, results and protocols. Totally fucking worthless for survivors.
See the small bore idea from 2012:

The WSO had their World Stroke Organization Synergium in 2010 and you can see why in my opinion it is totally worthless.

Hyderabad, Oct 25 (PTI) In a first, India will be hosting the 10th World Stroke Congress (WSC) here tomorrow.

Nearly 2,100 delegates from different parts of the world are expected to attend the event jointly organised by the World Stroke Organisation (WSO), the world s leading organisation in the fight against stroke, and the Indian Stroke Association (ISA).

The World Stroke Congress is held once in two years.

The event will have joint sessions with World Health Organisation (WHO), World Hypertension League, Asia Pacific Stroke Organisation, European Stroke Organisation, American Stroke Association, World Federation of Neuro Rehabilitation, Indian Federation of Neuro Rehabilitation and Indian Academy of Neurology.

"These important sessions will focus on key issues related to stroke care and policies,"(not results!!!) said Prof Werner Hacke, the WSC Oversight Committee Chair and incoming President of WSO, in a statement.

The WSO would be releasing the Road Map for stroke care during the four-day conference.

WSO's mission is to reduce the global burden of stroke through prevention, treatment and long term care. WSO collaborates closely with the WHO, the statement said.

Stroke is a major cause of disability and death worldwide, according to the statement, which said a large proportion of strokes occur in low and middle income countries like India.

"In India, 1.7 million new stroke cases occur every year.

It affects young people in India during their productive period of life. Stroke care infrastructure is developed mainly in private hospitals with most of the public hospitals being ill-equipped to treat stroke patients," said Jeyaraj Pandian, WSC Co-Chair from India.
