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.

Interlimb coupling in poststroke rehabilitation: A pilot randomized controlled trial

Useless until stroke survivors can find the protocol. 

Just maybe your stroke hospital has already created a protocol from all this earlier research? Nope? That would mean competence, your stroke hospital shows zero competence.

Abstract: 

Study developed an interlimb coupling protocol(Where the fuck is it?) and assessed its feasibility and effect on motor recovery, gait, and disability among post-stroke hemiparetic subjects. Interlimb coupling, or coordination between the limbs, gets hampered in post-stroke hemiparesis. Fifty post-stroke hemiparetic subjects were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. The 8-week experimental intervention (3 sessions of 1 hour each, per week) comprised activities demanding coordinated, alternate, and rhythmic use of the affected as well as the less-affected limbs. The outcome measures were feasibility of activities, Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Rivermead Visual Gait Assessment (RVGA), Functional Ambulation Category (FAC), and modified Rankin Scale (mRS). The experimental protocol was found to be feasible by the participants. Post intervention, the experimental group exhibited highly significant difference for FMA, RVGA reduction, and median FAC enhancement in comparison to the controls. However, the median mRS level of experimental group did not change significantly when compared with the controls. Results indicate that the interlimb coupling training is a feasible program that may enhance recovery of the upper and lower limbs and gait in stroke. Further definitive randomized trials are warranted to validate the present findings.
