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.

Zebra Medical's new brain bleed detection algorithm scores CE mark

No clue what CE is.  But it doesn't say how fast it is or how fast it needs to be to get to 100% recovery after a bleed is stopped.

Zebra Medical Vision announced on Monday that it received CE mark for its brain bleed detection algorithm to be integrated into its Deep Learning Imaging Analytics platform.

This is part of the company’s AI1 business model that provides health care providers with access to its current and future algorithms for one dollar per scan.



“This new algorithm is an important addition to Zebra’s Analytics Engine,” says Dr. Mike Phillips, chief of clinical and outreach services at Intermountain Healthcare, said in a statement. “The ability to alert radiologists and surgeons to the presence of brain bleeds is critical, and will bring significant benefits in patient care to health care organizations.”

Since its inception in October, it has grown to offer algorithms for automatically detecting low bone mineral density, vertebral fractures, fatty liver, coronary artery calcium, emphysema and more.

The new algorithm is capable of detecting a type of brain bleed called intracranial hemorrhage, which occurs when there is bleeding inside the skull. Almost six million people die every year from brain bleed-related conditions, according to the World Stroke Organization.

This is Zebra Medical’s first acute care algorithm. The company plans to deploy it for point of care detection and work list prioritization, so radiologists can better manage their workload.

In the coming months, the company plans to launch several additional “high impact” algorithms. To date, AI1 has been used to evaluate over one million scans in more than five countries.
