Deans' stroke musings: Analysis of Physical Therapy Interventions on Quality of Life of Patients after Stroke

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.

What a fucking waste. No objective measurements of recovery.

Abstract: The aim of this study was to determine the influence of physical therapy interventions on the quality of life of patients post-stroke. For the study, a systematic review was conducted from September to November 2012 in the Scielo, PubMed, Science Direct and PeDro databases, published in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. The following descriptors were used: stroke, quality of life, rehabilitation, and physical therapy. A total of 161 studies were found, of which 153 were excluded. The remaining eight were analyzed regarding physical therapy that contributes to improved quality of life from interventions ranging from classical kinesiotherapy to new therapeutic possibilities, such as induction therapy and restriction of movement, mirror therapy, and body weight-supported treadmill. Results indicate that the various therapeutic approaches applied in clinical practice resonate with significant improvements in quality of life of patients post stroke, from the most traditional to the most contemporary.
