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.

Stroke Recovery Strategies June 16 webinar by Anysia Ensslen-Boggs, Ed.D., M.S., CCC-SLP

Looking at the objectives and outline there is nothing on recovery protocols to use, so in my opinion, worthless.

Stroke Recovery Strategies June 16 webinar by Anysia Ensslen-Boggs, Ed.D., M.S., CCC-SLP

 
  • Learning Objectives
  1. Identify various etiologies of cognitive deficits as they relate to the neuroanatomy of strokes.
  2. Define principles of experience-dependent neuroplasticity and its impact on rehabilitation.
  3. Select appropriate screenings and assessments to informally and formally evaluate cognitive deficits.
  4. Explain how various cognitive impairments impact the patient's ability to meet transdisciplinary treatment objectives.
  5. Implement treatment techniques for orientation, short-term memory, safety awareness, and executive functioning forfunctional improvement of ADL's across all therapydisciplines.
  6. Compose measurable goals that allow for documentation of patient outcomes.
