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.

From Their Perspective: A Qualitative Analysis of Stroke Survivor’s Motivation to Participate in Rehabilitation

You wouldn't need motivational strategies if you had EXACT STROKE PROTOCOLS LEADING TO 100% RECOVERY. That would be enough to motivate all stroke survivors even if you asked them to do 1 million reps.  You are solving a secondary problem. Damn it all, work on the primary problem, 100% recovery.

From Their Perspective: A Qualitative Analysis of Stroke Survivor’s Motivation to Participate in Rehabilitation


Description/Abstract

Introduction: It is common practice for healthcare professionals to make judgments about a patient's motivation based on their demeanor and compliance with therapy. Motivation is one of the predictors used to determine a stroke survivor's rehabilitation potential. There are several theories and constructs for motivation; however, there is limited research applying these concepts in stroke rehabilitation. Rehabilitation clinicians primarily rely on their clinical judgment and consult the evidence from related fields to identify the motivational needs of a stroke survivor. The objective of this study was to understand specific barriers to participation and identify motivational needs to sustain engagement in rehabilitation from the stroke survivor's rehabilitation experiences.
Method: This is a qualitative study involving six stroke survivors interviewed in two separate focus groups. The interview questions obtained information across seven themes: autonomy, competence, self-determination, self-efficacy, confidence, the external focus of attention, and relatedness. The interviews were videotaped, transcribed verbatim, then analyzed using a thematic approach.
Results: Preliminary analysis identified similar experiences for themes of relatedness, autonomy, confidence, self-determination, and competence. The analysis of the positive and negative experiences aligns to identify specific barriers and motivators for participation.
Discussion: The outcomes of this study identify barriers to participation and confirms the constructs of motivation important for participation in rehabilitation from a stroke survivor's perspective.
