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.

Neurocritical Care Expert Leads NYU Langone Hospital-Brooklyn's Sophisticated Stroke and Neurology Programs

If they were really good they would tell us results. Since they don't I assume they are no better than average. 

  1. tPA full recovery? Better than 12%?
  2. 30 day deaths? Better than competitors?
  3. rehab full recovery? Better than 10%?/

BROOKLYN, N.Y., Jan. 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Aaron S. Lord, MD, MSc, an expert in neurocritical care, has been appointed chief of neurology at NYU Langone Hospital–Brooklyn. He was previously chief of neurocritical care at NYU School of Medicine and medical director of the neurosciences intensive care and step down units at NYU Langone's Tisch Hospital in Manhattan.
Lord will lead a program that already has been recognized for national clinical excellence.(Really? How can you tell?)  It is one of the few hospitals in the country to hold dual certification by The Joint Commission as both a Comprehensive Stroke Center and Stroke Rehabilitation Center.
"We have an excellent team of dedicated neurologists, neurosurgeons, rehabilitation specialists, and other healthcare professionals," Lord says. "Along with our colleagues and the vast resources available at NYU Langone Health, our patients have the full benefit of world-class neurological care(NOT results)close to where they live."
Lord, an assistant professor in neurology and neurosurgery at NYU School of Medicine, received his medical degree from Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons, where he trained in neurology and neurocritical care. He also holds a master's degree in clinical investigation from NYU School of Medicine, with a particular interest in intracerebral hemorrhage, one the deadliest types of strokes. Currently, he is conducting a study on the brain's role in incidents of infection in patients recovering from stroke.
"I have always been interested in how things work," he says. "I endeavored to become a neurologist because there is no more complex part of the body to study than the brain," he says.
Lord opted to complete his medicine internship at NYU School of Medicine because "it offered a postgraduate education setting like no other," he says. "It was an opportunity to work with patients in both private and public hospital settings, and from all walks of life. It also exposed me to a wide variety of simple and complex ailments."
The diversity and complexity of the Brooklyn population presents similar opportunities. "I look forward to bringing on additional specialists and growing the variety and depth of neurological diagnostic and treatment services," says Lord.
