Deans' stroke musings: World Stroke Organization Key advocacy priorities

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.

World Stroke Organization Key advocacy priorities

More crap from the WSO about why they can't solve stroke.

World Stroke Organization Key advocacy priorities

Stroke is gaining ground globally – over the past 10 years the lifetime risk of stroke in adults over 25 has risen from 1 in 6 to 1 in 4. Over 100 million people in the world have experienced stroke and projections for the next decades suggest that this number will increase strongly. The global cost of stroke looks set to hit US$1 trillion. It is clear that the long-term personal and socioeconomic impact of stroke requires specific policy and action. WSO has identified five advocacy priorities to drive the development and implementation of evidence-based policy stroke.

1 Stroke prevention - reducing exposure to stroke risk factors; implementing and promoting motivational mobile technologies; facilitating access to low dose combination medications in one polypill for specific groups and investing in the training and deployment of community health workers.

2 Stroke recognition – improving public awareness of the signs of stroke and the benefits of timely access to quality acute stroke care.

3 Stroke services – ensuring context-specific implementation of its Global Stroke Services Guideline and Action Plan and its companion WSO Roadmap to Delivering Quality Stroke Care throughout the world.

4 Life after stroke - ensuring people affected by stroke have access to neuro-rehabilitation units and when needed to long-term rehabilitation and support that is essential for health, well-being and social participation. WSO invests in and advocates for the meaningful involvement of stroke survivors and caregivers in the development of national, regional and global policy.

5 Action and accountability – WSO calls for bolder actions from both governmental and non-governmental organisations, including taxation from sugar loaded drinks, tobacco and alcohol (STAX) towards improving stroke treatment, prevention and rehabilitation services and to enhance population-based prevention programmes. WSO supports and advocates for the development and delivery of evidence-based comprehensive measures that encompass prevention, acute care, rehabilitation and support.
