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.

Brain and Cognitive Reserve in Healthy and Neurologically Impaired Populations: A Scoping Review of Conceptual and Psychometric Measurement Properties

EXACTLY how is your doctor measuring your brain reserve after your stroke? EXACTLY what protocols does your doctor have to build up your reserve? So you can withstand your likely descent into dementia. Hopefully your doctor has those two answers and knows why they are needed. 

Your chances of getting dementia. Has your doctor warned you about this? If not, fire them.
 

1. A documented 33% dementia chance post-stroke from an Australian study?   May 2012.

2. Then this study came out and seems to have a range from 17-66%. December 2013.

3. A 20% chance in this research.   July 2013.

4. Dementia Risk Doubled in Patients Following Stroke September 2018

Abstract





This review focused on understanding the operationlisation of brain and cognitive reserve across 264 included studies. While the majority of reserve research has assessed the concepts utility in those with neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer's disease, a growing body of literature has assessed the influence of cognitive reserve across healthy ageing and in those with neurological conditions other than dementia. However, reserve measurement is extremely heterogeneous across studies, which makes cross-study comparison very difficult. It is thus important to understand more about the conceptual and psychometric properties of reserve measurements - this review sought to answer those questions.
