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.

IISc develops customisable 3D printed gloves for rehabilitating stroke patients

I like this since it is not a glove which spastic fingers could never get on.

What is your doctor's EXACT STROKE REHAB PROTOCOL FOR 100% RECOVERY OF YOUR HAND. No protocol, fire them and get the board of directors fired also for not setting correct goals for the stroke department. 

IISc develops customisable 3D printed gloves for rehabilitating stroke patients

The device is sensitive enough to react to the touch of a butterfly. Researchers from the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have developed a soft, wearable 3D printed device that harnesses the properties of light to sense a physiotherapy patient's limb or finger movements. The customisable gloves can be remotely controlled, allowing for the possibility of teleconsultation with physiotherapists. Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability in India, and physiotherapy is one of the few treatment options available for stroke victims and those with physical disabilities.

The amount of pressure applied on a ball, or the degree to which a leg with a knee injury can be bent by the patient, is crucial for doctors to monitor patients, which can be done remotely with the device. The device can be used to sense various hand and finger movements, and precisely measure parameters such as pressure, bending angle and shape. The feedback can also be used to motivate the patients to perform better in consecutive sessions.

The underlying approach has potential applications in AR devices and medical devices for monitoring health parameters.
