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.

Combined action observation and motor imagery therapy: a novel method for post-stroke motor rehabilitation

Whoopee. Suggestions for applying research that has been out there for years. 17 pages with no protocols, so useless.  You 10 million yearly stroke survivors  are on your own to figure out your recovery. No help from the stroke medical world. Start guessing.

 

Combined action observation and motor imagery therapy: a novel method for post-stroke motor rehabilitation


Jonathan R. Emerson*, Jack A. Binks, Matthew W. Scott, Ryan P. W. Kenny and Daniel L. Eaves* School of Health and Social Care , Teesside University, Middlesb rough, UK * Correspondence: Email: J.emerson@tees.ac.uk, d.eaves@tees.ac.uk; Tel: +44-1642- 342380. Abstract: Cerebral vascular accidents (strokes) are a leading cause of motor deficiency in millions of people worldwide. While a complex range of biological system s is affected following a stroke, in this paper we focus primarily on impairments of the motor system and the recovery of motor skills. We briefly review research that has assessed two types of mental practice, which are currently recommended in stroke rehabilitation. Namely, action observation (AO) therapy and motor imagery (MI) training. We highlight the strengths and limitations in bo th techniques, before making the case for combined action observation and motor imagery (AO + MI) the rapy as a potentially more effective method. This is based on a growing body of multimodal brain imaging research showing advantages for combined AO + MI instructions over the two separate methods of AO and MI. Finally, we offer a series of suggestions and considerations(We don't want suggestions and considerations, we want protocols.) for how combined AO + MI therapy could be employed in neurorehabilitation.
