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.

Strategies to Improve Medical Communication

 Did you get ANY useful communications from your stroke medical 'professionals'?

I got none, my doctor knew nothing and did nothing. My therapists never told me the chances of recovery or the  expected outcomes of the interventions I was doing. 

 I should expect;

  1. Percentage efficacy of the intervention

  2. Number of repetitions required to get recovered.

  3. The research that backs up the suggested repetitions and efficacy

If you have none of that you don't have a functioning anything in stroke!

RUN AWAY!

Strategies to Improve Medical Communication

JAMA. Published online December 7, 2023. doi:10.1001/jama.2023.23430

Accurate and clear medical information helps patients better manage their health, improves treatment adherence, and reduces health care costs, all of which help improve quality of life.1 Medical communication is the provision of information about disease prevention, diagnosis, and management, including the risks and benefits of treatment and nontreatment. While medical communication has historically referred to verbal or written communication between a clinician and patient, communication through other sources, such as social media channels and video sharing, have expanded the message format and the audience. This article proposes effective medical communication strategies for clinicians and focuses on 3 aspects: the message, messenger, and social context (Figure).
