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.

November is Stroke Technology Month - National Stroke Association

What a complete sick joke. Nothing here comes close to resembling a protocol that you can take to your doctor to implement. In all, this is a complete proof of the NSA being useless for survivors.

November is Technology Month

During November 2016, the National Stroke Association is highlighting the ways that technology affects the stroke community. Technology plays a critical role in stroke prevention and detection, as well as rehabilitation and stroke recovery.  Follow along with us during November to learn more.
Yes, we'll learn how incompetent you are.

Understanding Technology

Technology in the stroke world is ever-evolving and changing quickly. Use our new resources to learn more about technology and stroke.
  • Technology and Stroke Infographic—an overview of technology and stroke care, Wow is that pathetic
  • Suggested questions for your healthcare provider—interested in specific technologies to support you in your recovery? This resource provides some suggestions for you and your provider to discuss to determine if technology could support you in your recovery. Worthless, you are just dumping the replies onto doctors who know nothing. Fuck, do you do ANYTHING USEFUL?
  • Suggestions for financing your technology—many people may need to explore funding options for accessing technology. This resource provides some starting points. What would be useful is YOU making sure these technology items are approved and paid for by insurance. But that would entail actual hard work on your part.

Accessing Technology

If you own a smart phone you already have access to hundreds of applications that can help improve cognitive function, fine motor skills, and coordination. Innovations in stroke prevention are also helpful in tracking your blood pressure, healthy diet and exercise along with monitoring your heart rate. Speak with your healthcare team for more information about how technology could help you in your stroke recovery journey. But you don't specifically tell us about any of them. Fucking lazy assholes.

    Dean,
    What a joke!
    Not one specific protocol, device, or method suggested or recommended! Just a bunch of suggestions, that there might be technological solutions to the problems of stroke and recovery.
    But you are on your own!
    I asked all the suggested questions of my providers an was told "at this time, nothing is proven and paid for by insurance and I would just spend a bunch of money and get frustrated."
