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.

Large‐Vessel Occlusion Art by Sebastian Sanchez, MD

Hopefully your competent? doctor can show you an EXACT PICTURE of your stroke damage and EXACTLY describe the areas and functions it compromised and then the EXACT PROTOCOLS to fix the problems caused by this! Well if you have a competent doctor that can be done. But I bet you don't have a competent doctor!

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology

About the Artist

Sebastian Sanchez is a neurology resident at Yale University. Before commencing his residency, he dedicated 2 years to research as a fellow under the mentorship of Dr Edgar Samaniego at the University of Iowa. During this tenure, he delved into a spectrum of subjects encompassing stroke and intracranial aneurysms.

About the Art

By unveiling intricate cerebral blood flow dynamics, perfusion imaging is a useful tool for clinical decisions in stroke management. It precisely maps the ischemic penumbra and core infarct zones, guiding interventions like endovascular thrombectomy. In large‐vessel occlusion, rapid changes manifest as color variations on perfusion imaging, indicating reduced regional blood flow. This Photoshop‐rendered watercolor, based on perfusion imaging, vividly portrays the evolving impact of a large‐vessel occlusion affecting the M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery. As the blood flow is compromised, the colors in the heat map progress from blue into green, yellow, and red. A representation of the brain's vasculature is superimposed, abruptly interrupted on the observer's right by the occlusion, exemplifying the profound disruption caused by vascular blockages.
