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.

Development of prediction models for domestic chores resumption among mild stroke patients three months after discharge from specialized rehabilitation wards: A multi-center prospective cohort study

Look how low they have sunk in their tyranny of low expectations. 'Domestic chores' NOT 100% RECOVERY. I'd be screaming in their faces for such appalling crapola.

ABSTRACT

Background

Whether stroke patients resume domestic chores is one of the major issues associated with their quality of life. Prediction models for domestic chores resumption among stroke survivors can be useful for setting goals and planning rehabilitation.

Objectives

To develop prediction models for individual domestic chores resumption among mild stroke patients three months after discharge from specialized rehabilitation wards.

Methods

Ninety-one stroke patients admitted to specialized rehabilitation wards were included in the analyses. We assessed the prestroke and three months post-discharge frequencies of six domestic chore items of the Frenchay Activities Index. Demographics and candidate predictors such as paralysis severity, cognitive function, walking speed, and self-efficacy were collected at discharge. Binary logistic regression analyses were performed to build prediction models for individual domestic chores resumption after stroke.

Results

The preparing meals model included walking speed (OR = 1.05) and cognitive function (OR = 1.29) as predictors; washing up model, walking speed (OR = 1.04); washing clothes model, walking speed (OR = 1.06), and number of family members living together (OR = 0.42); light housework model, walking speed (OR = 1.06); heavy housework model, walking speed (OR = 1.03), cognitive function (OR = 1.38), and self-efficacy (OR = 1.91); and local shopping model, walking speed (OR = 1.05), age (OR = 0.94), and number of family members living together (OR = 0.61).

Conclusions

Our models may be useful in clinical practice to streamline the setting of goals(the only goal in stroke is 100% recovery, don't try to dumb it down)  and development of therapeutic strategies for individual domestic chores resumption among mild stroke patients.
