Deans' stroke musings: Making stroke centers truly comprehensive: A neurorehabilitation perspective

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.

Making stroke centers truly comprehensive: A neurorehabilitation perspective

Let's be realistic, you have completely the wrong fucking definition of comprehensive stroke centers. It should be; YOU GET 100% RECOVERED THERE, NOTHING LESS! This is precisely why almost every stroke leader needs to be fired, they are completely useless in solving the goal of 100% recovery for all. I dare any stroke leader to tell me where I am wrong without using the excuse that the brain and stroke is hard to understand and research. Any excuse and you are NO FUCKING LEADER. You'd be fragged in war.

Abstract: Article discusses the need for stroke centers to better address the immense postacute burdens encountered by patients, caregivers, and society. Specifically, accredited stroke centers are required to follow stroke survivors at 90 days, but do not typically obtain data further out (i.e., 6 months, 1 year) when substantial adjustments to community life, secondary sequelae, and other stroke-related consequences are likely to occur. For stroke centers to truly be considered “comprehensive,” they must monitor the outcomes – and serve the needs of – postacute stroke survivors. These needs include assuring the provision of quality, evidence-based, care in the weeks and months poststroke; not just during the 5–7 days when patients are typically situated in the acute care hospital. Stroke centers that are truly comprehensive must also monitor outcomes of their survivors well into the postacute period, when community integration and secondary sequelae frequently emerge, and assure that quality rehabilitative personnel are in place to assure optimal outcomes.
