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.

Fast path to stroke recovery at Cleveland Clinic Rehabilitation Hospital in Avon

The intensity of 3 hours of therapy a day is still appallingly low when you consider that patients have plenty of time to do therapy.
From some of my earlier posts:
Only 13 % of a stroke unit patient’s day is typically spent in activities related to functional outcome.

Patients should have no downtime except to sleep and with that they should be trained in lucid dreaming. There is no place for slackers in stroke recovery. Eating should be therapy, using your affected side. The foods you eat should be proven as stroke prevention. If you aren't working the hardest you have ever worked in your life you aren't going to recover to the best of your ability. Nothing your doctor or therapist does will magically make your recovery occur. ALL the work is for you to accomplish.
