Deans' stroke musings: The Neurology and Neuropsychiatry of COVID-19

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.

The Neurology and Neuropsychiatry of COVID-19

In case you really want to keep up with this topic. 40 papers under the stroke category.

The Neurology and Neuropsychiatry of COVID-19

By Matt Butler, Cameron Watson, Mark Ellul, Tom Pollak, Ally Rooney, Benedict Michael and Tim Nicholson
Evidence on the neurological and neuropsychiatric manifestations and complications of COVID-19 infections is emerging and this is likely to accelerate as the pandemic develops and clinical syndromes are detected, characterised and their mechanisms investigated.
In this blog we will:

Collate relevant publications in a database using specified search strategies (including preprint servers).
Analyse the evolving evidence base to highlight the key papers.
Provide weekly updates including a brief digest of new publications, every Friday.

NB: Please report suspected cas

es via the Coronerve surveillance study – specific portals also exist for Paediatric Neurologists, Stroke Physicians & Psychiatrists reporting cases.
We will add other reporting systems as and when they are developed.
