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.

The effects of mindfulness-based interventions in post-stroke rehabilitation

FYI. Does your hospital do any of these? Do you even have a functioning stroke hospital?

Some examples include:

  • Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT)

  • Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR)

  • Dialectal behavior therapy (DBT)

  • Self-compassion therapy.

  • Yoga.

  • Meditation.

Abstract 

Stroke is nowadays one of the most prevalent diseases worldwide causing devastating impairments and negative consequences for survivors. It is a main cause of adult onset disability and it can have a negative impact on psychological health, cognitive function and quality of life. Post-stroke rehabilitation may reduce long-term disability, and in recent years several innovations have emerged to improve recovery. Decades of research suggest that mindfulness-based interventions support a greater capacity to live with chronic medical conditions and contribute to lowering stress levels. Previous works report positive results amoung stroke survivors, improvements in mood, mental fatigue and in some degree in cognitive and physical functioning, plus represent a promising option in secon­dary prevention. Since the early 2000s, numerous clinical studies have investigated the efficacy of mindfulness-based interventions in post-stroke rehabilitation. In this paper the main results of the relevant international research is reviewed and also, the main modalities of the mindfulness-based interventions are presented. Our primary goal is to evaluate the results in order to draw attention to the importance of rehabilitation of patients with stroke and hopefully the theoretical and practical knowledge of the review will contribute to development effective and secure protocols in future research. Mindfulness-based techniques can become clinically valuable complementary therapeutic interventions in post-stroke rehabilitation. More research in this area is warranted: to evaluate these specific practices and their suitability; using randomized, controlled, follow up designs, rigorous methods, and different treatment settings; expanding outcomes to include physiological, health care use, and health-related outcomes; exploring mediating factors; and discerning dose effects and optimal frequency and length of practice.
