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.

Stroke rate ‘tsunami’ will result in 12,000 new cases a year in Ireland

And because we have fucking failures of stroke associations  we have NO STRATEGY AND NO LEADERSHIP to solve stroke. This failure goes back decades and will continue until we get survivors in charge. Your children and grandchildren will be screwed if they have a stroke.

Stroke rate ‘tsunami’ will result in 12,000 new cases a year in Ireland

 

The results have prompted a demand by the Irish Heart Foundation for urgent investment in stroke services.(Services just provide the status quo which is a complete fucking failure.)

Ireland is facing a “tsunami” of stroke cases in the next 10 years after research warned that the stroke rate will soar to almost 12,000 new incidences a year.

According to the Stroke Alliance for Europe (Safe), this represents a 58% increase.

The results have prompted a demand by the Irish Heart Foundation for urgent investment in stroke services.

The increase, predicted to be among the highest in Europe, will see the cost of stroke rise by nearly 40% over the almost 500 million euro the research estimates is already spent annually in Ireland to treat the disease.

This research shows the tsunami of new strokes we are facing in Ireland is due mainly to our ageing population. Chris Macey

Approximately 7,500 people in Ireland are currently hospitalised due to stroke each year, according to the HSE’s National Stroke Programme.
