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.

Mechanical thrombectomy practices in France: exhaustive survey of centers and individual operators

There is absolutely nothing impressive about this. You are lying by omission of the survivors that got 100% recovered and the death rate. Your bar of excellence is so low it is buried underground. Seeing the questions would tell us how biased the survey was.

Mechanical thrombectomy practices in France: exhaustive survey of centers and individual operators




Abstract

Background and purpose: 
Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has dramatically changed the landscape of stroke care as well as stroke care organization. Public health institutions are faced with the challenge of swiftly providing equal access to this high technical level procedure with rapidly broadening indications, and constantly developing techniques. The aim of this study was to present a current nationwide overview of technical MT practices in France as well as local organizations. (Survivors don't fucking care about practices, they want to know your results, this told us nothing.)
Materials and methods: 
Thrombectomy capable French stroke centers, and physicians performing MT were invited to participate to a nationwide survey, disseminated through an existing trainee-led research network (the JENI-RC) under the aegis of the French Society of Neuroradiology. The survey was composed of 64 questions to collect both individual practices and general center-based information.
Results: 
All French centers (100 %) answered the survey, and 74% (110/148) of active interventional neuroradiologists (INR) performing MT completed individual questionnaires. The mean number of INR per center performing MT was 3.7±1.85, and 85% of the centers were organized for 24/7 continuity of care. MRI was the most commonly used imaging modality for stroke diagnosis and patients’ selection, and perfusion imaging was routinely available in 85% of the centers. Half of centers performed yearly between 100 and 200 MT. Anesthesiologic, and technical considerations are also developed in the manuscript.
Conclusions: 
This nationwide survey highlights the impressive response to the challenge of reorganization of stroke care with regards to mechanical thrombectomy in France. Technical and management disparities remain. Most centers remain understaffed to properly function in the long term, but the inflow of INT trainees is substantial.
