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.

Eye tracking as a tool to identify mood in aphasia: A feasibility study.

Why work on this secondary problem? Mood problems in aphasia wouldn't exist if you had EXACT PROTOCOLS WITH EXACT REPETITION NUMBERS.   Yeah, that might be hard to solve but leaders solve problems, they don't work on minor shit. Solve the damn primary problem, getting to 100% recovery.

Abstract: 

Study examined the feasibility of using eye tracking to measure mood in people with post-stroke aphasia. Twenty-two subjects with chronic aphasia and 12 healthy controls completed 2 self-report measures of mood. They also viewed faces that showed happy, sad, and neutral facial expressions during eye tracking. Two eye-tracking indices were analyzed: (1) initial gaze orientation and (2) gaze maintenance to happy, sad, and neutral faces. For initial gaze orientation, participants with aphasia fixated faster on emotional faces compared with healthy controls but directed their gaze less often to happy faces compared with healthy controls. For gaze maintenance components, the duration of first fixation and total fixation duration were shorter on sad faces for participants with aphasia compared with healthy controls. Findings indicate that use of eye tracking with faces representing different mood states is feasible in people with aphasia. Although there were some similarities, participants with aphasia had different gaze patterns to emotional faces compared with healthy controls. Further research is needed to establish whether this is a valid and reliable method of mood assessment.
