Deans' stroke musings: How effective are treatments for anxiety after stroke? -- A Cochrane review summary with commentary

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.

How effective are treatments for anxiety after stroke? -- A Cochrane review summary with commentary

Anxiety is a secondary problem after stroke. You wouldn't have to treat for this if you had effective stroke rehab protocols leading to 100% recovery. Survivors have anxiety because their doctors and therapists have no fucking clue how to get them recovered and survivors pick that up.

Abstract: This commentary discusses, from a rehabilitation perspective, a published Cochrane Review that assessed the effectiveness of pharmaceutical and psychological interventions in treating stroke patients with anxiety disorders or symptoms. The review included three studies. The authors concluded that the available evidence was of low quality, with small numbers of participants and subject to high risk of biases. From a rehabilitation perspective, detailed information on functional outcomes would be noteworthy. Only one study included in the review measured functional outcomes.
