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.

Stroke affects more than 800 000 people each year in the United States. Between 2000 and 2010, stroke-related deaths declined by 35% in the United States, and 80% survive the acute event.1 There is wide diversity in stroke patients and stroke severity,2 but of those admitted to a hospital, about 65% of survivors receive rehabilitation services, and more than 30% have persistent deficits in autonomy, engagement, and fulfilling societal roles.3 Clinicians should be familiar with the levels of care of poststroke rehabilitation and services, which include the acute hospital stay and postacute continuum of care, with care delivery sites differentiated by intensity of care, location of care, and needs for skilled nursing. The AHA/ASA guideline weaves evidence and consensus to guide stroke rehabilitation management throughout the spectrum of care and promote return of patients to their communities.4
