Deans' stroke musings: Advances in Stroke Digital Health

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.

Advances in Stroke Digital Health

I would count on nothing here actually helping survivors get to 100% recovery. 'Care' is referred to twice but nothing on results or recovery, so useless.

Abstract

The year 2020 has undoubtedly made Digital Health a necessity and no longer an exception. Many technological advances that seemed futuristic became a reality in a few months due to the pandemic’s needs. Stroke was one of the diseases that most benefited from the digital health revolution. Due to the need for immediate care and a shortage of neurologists worldwide, telestroke has revolutionized the acute care of cerebrovascular diseases in many areas based on strong scientific evidence. In this brief article, we have tried to summarize all we have experienced in 2020, the year which irreversibly transformed the practice of medicine.
