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.

Intensive in-bed sensorimotor rehabilitation of early subacute stroke survivors with severe hemiplegia using a wearable robot

Do you really think your stroke hospital has enough functioning neurons to bring this in for therapy? 

Do you prefer your  hospital incompetence NOT KNOWING? OR NOT DOING? Because your hospital is incompetent if nothing is being done, in my opinion.

Abstract: Study investigated the feasibility and effectiveness of early in-bed sensorimotor rehabilitation on acute stroke survivors with severe hemiplegia using a wearable ankle robot. Eighteen patients (9 in the study group and 9 in the control group) with severe hemiplegia and no active ankle movement were enrolled in acute/subacute phase post stroke. During a typical 3-week hospital stay, patients in the study group received ankle robot-guided in-bed training (50 minutes per session, 5 sessions a week), including motor relearning under real-time visual feedback of re-emerging motor output, strong passive stretching under intelligent control, and game-based active movement training with robotic assistance. The control group received passive ankle movement in the mid-range of motion and attempted active ankle movement without robotic assistance. After multi-session training, the study group achieved significantly greater improvements in Fugl-Meyer Lower Extremity motor score, plantarflexor strength, and active range of motion than controls. The study group showed earlier motor recovery for plantarflexion and dorsiflexion than the control group. Resuts showed that in-bed sensorimotor rehabilitation guided by a wearable ankle robot through combining motor relearning in real-time feedback, strong passive stretching, and active movement training facilitated early motor recovery for stroke survivors with severe hemiplegia in the acute/subacute phase.
