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.

The effect of aerobic exercise on stroke rehabilitation

What a fucking wimpy useless conclusion. NO PROTOCOLS and this has been known for years. Your senior researchers and mentors should be fired for allowing this waste of time.  Proving once again that stroke researchers don't keep up-to-date with research in their field.

    Abstract

    Background and aims

    To compare the effects of aerobic exercise and conventional exercise that were applied during the rehabilitation process on the aerobic capacity, motor function, activity limitation, quality of life, depression level, and sleep quality in subacute stroke patients.

    Methods

    The patients were divided into two groups; aerobic exercise group (n = 22) or conventional exercise group (n = 20). Both groups participated in a conventional stroke rehabilitation program; however, aerobic exercise program was applied only for the patients in group 1. Exercise tolerance test (ETT), respiratory function tests, 6-min walking test (6-MWT), functional independence measure (FIM), Nottingham health profile (NHP), Beck depression scale (BDS), and Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) were evaluated on admission and discharge.

    Results

    The 6-MWT, FIM, some subgroups of NHP, BDS, and PSQI results demonstrated statistical differences in both groups after rehabilitation programs. Significant differences were recorded in terms of changes between admission and discharge values of ETT and BDS in favor of aerobic exercise group.

    Conclusions

    Incorporation of aerobic exercises into conventional rehabilitation programs of early stroke patients may provide positive contributions, particularly to mood and aerobic capacity.
