Deans' stroke musings: Applying microsoft kinect for windows to develop a Stroke Rehabilitation System

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.

Applying microsoft kinect for windows to develop a Stroke Rehabilitation System

What is the point? Why haven't our professionals put this into a publicly available stroke protocol and stop researching the same stuff over and over again? There have been 19 posts on Kinect back to June 2012. FDA approved the device for stroke in May 2014.
Incompetence? Stupidity? Doesn't care? I blame the senior researchers and mentors for not creating protocols and knowing previous research.

Abstract:

This study develops a Stroke Rehabilitation System for stroke patients. Patients can stay at home to use this system. The design of this system is based on WHO ICF concept to develop the system and included Barthel scale for patient's evaluation. The programs design by Microsoft C# programming language to control Microsoft Kinect System. The results demonstrate that our system can easy to implement in patient's home. We collect patient's daily rehabilitation data and record it to the database. The data can be statistically analyze and drop a bar chart for visually watch. The results can upload to local hospital Medical Cloud for doctor's reference. We also demonstrate the system and provide sample code for reference.
