Deans' stroke musings: Behaviour change approaches within digital health technology-based interventions to facilitate early upper limb rehabilitation post stroke: a scoping review

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.

Behaviour change approaches within digital health technology-based interventions to facilitate early upper limb rehabilitation post stroke: a scoping review

Ask your competent? doctor EXACTLY HOW THIS WILL GET YOU RECOVERED! Doesn't know about it? You don't have a functioning stroke doctor!

Purpose: Digital health technologies (DHTs) have the potential to support individuals to make changes to their behaviour in the early months following a stroke that will enable engagement with the intensive upper limb rehabilitation that is crucial to their recovery. In the absence of review literature in this area this scoping review aimed to identify and explore the use of behaviour change approaches in DHT-based interventions for upper limb rehabilitation in the first six months after stroke.
