Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 27,803 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke.DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER, BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain!trillions and trillions of neuronsthatDIEeach day because there areNOeffective 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.

Province announces new stroke unit at HSC - Winnipeg Manitoba
You can see from the start that they have accepted the tyranny of low expectations. Improve patient outcomes, WHAT A PILE OF SHIT. You will need to scream at these 'professionals'. The goal is to deliver stroke rehab results, 100% recovery, you blithering idiots. THIS is why survivors need to be in charge, we wouldn't stand for such crapola.
The province has announced a new 28-bed unit for stroke
patients at Winnipeg’s largest hospital, the first of its kind in
Manitoba.
The dedicated acute stroke unit is intended to improve
patient outcomes and create shorter stays in hospital, Health Minister
Cameron Friesen said on Tuesday. Improved outcomes and shorter stays
mean reduced costs, as well.
At the moment, the province is the only in Canada without an acute stroke unit.
“Research
shows an acute stroke unit can reduce the likelihood of death and
disability by as much as 30% for men and women of any age with mild,
moderate and severe strokes,” Friesen said. “This new, centralized unit
will help prevent stroke complications, reduce patient length of stay
and improve the availability of acute care beds for other patients
across our health system.”
Dr. Perry Gray, provincial lead, medical specialist services, and chief
medical officer Shared Health Services, at a media event at the Health
Sciences Centre, in Winnipeg. Tuesday. Winnipeg Sun/Chris ProcayloSunMedia Friesen said an acute stroke unit is considered a leading
practice across Canada for the treatment, management and rehabilitation
of stroke patients.
“These types of units are credited with
preventing stroke complications and recurrence, speeding up recovery
time and ensuring early rehabilitation therapy,” he said. “Care is
provided in a central location dedicated to the management of stroke
patients. A trained team of inter-professional staff, including stroke
neurologists, hospitalists, physiatrists and rehabilitation specialists,
work together to deliver early, intensive care.”
Around 2,000 Manitobans suffer a stroke each year.
“Acute
stroke care has three windows of therapy including clot busting, clot
removal and early intensive rehabilitation therapy,” said Dr. Perry
Gray, provincial lead, medical specialist services and chief medical
officer with Shared Health. “Clot busting is available in a number of
emergency departments and hospitals across the province and clot removal
is performed in specialized radiology suites located at HSC. However,
Manitoba has been missing the third component until now. With the
creation of an acute stroke unit, Manitoba stroke patients will have
access to the full range of therapies required to maximize recovery.”
The
cost of the project will be subject to the tendering process. The unit
will be located in the Women’s Pavilion. Construction is set to begin in
December once staff, equipment and programming are relocated. Building
upgrades will include heating, ventilation, lighting, asbestos removal,
an upgraded nurse call system, new sprinklers and new elevators.
