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.

Upper Extremity Rehabilitation of Stroke Patients

Maybe your doctor can create a protocol from this and these 9 earlier ones. Try not to laugh at that statement.

Abstract 

The object of this study was to investigate the influences of upper extremity exercises utilizing the upper extremity pattern of PNF, on the improvement of upper extremity functions in stroke patients. Ten subjects who agreed to participate in this study and satisfied the inclusion conditions were selected. They were randomized into the experimental and control groups. The experimental group (n = 5) received the upper extremity pattern of PNF after general physical therapy, whereas the control group (n = 5) received functional electrical stimulation after general physical therapy. To verify the intervention effects, the motor abilities before and after treatment were evaluated using the upper extremity distal part score of the Fugl-Meyer assessment (FMA) and the action research arm test. In addition, the exercise activity measurement chart was used to evaluate the activities of daily living. The FMA wrist and FMA hand, and ARAT score showed statistically significant differences between before and after the experiment in the experimental and control groups, respectively. In the comparison of treatment effects of the therapeutic intervention, the experimental group showed a statistically significant larger change compared to the control group. 1
