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 thought process allows your stroke medical professionals to allow complete failure in stroke?

My listing of failures, probably incomplete:
  1. 23% chance of stroke survivors getting PTSD
  2. tPA only fully works to reverse the stroke 12% of the time. Known since 1996.
     
  3. 30% of survivors having spasticity.  
  4. 33% chance of depression after stroke
  5. At least half of all stroke survivors experience fatigue Or is it 70%?
  6. lost 5 cognitive years from your stroke 
  7. 92% were confirmed to have a visual impairment
  8. Nothing provided for stopping the 5 causes of the neuronal cascade of death in the first week. 
  9. No way to compare your stroke hospital results vs. other stroke hospitals

     
  10. No published stroke rehab protocols. You are completely on your own. 

      
  11. Only 10% of patients get to full recovery.

     
  12. 33% dementia chance post-stroke from an Australian study? 
    This meme from World Stroke Day a couple years ago exemplifies the complete ignorance of what needs to be done in stroke. STROKE IS NOT TREATABLE YOU FUCKING LIARS!






    100% recovery for all survivors is going to be damned difficult to do but that is leadership. We need all these problems in stroke solved.
