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 Role of Sensory Impairments on Recovery and Rehabilitation After Stroke

Your competent? doctor already wrote protocols on this 20+ years ago based on Margaret Yekutiel writing a whole book about this in 2001, 'Sensory Re-Education of the Hand After Stroke'. Then ask what hand recovery protocols they wrote up from that 2001 book.

Do you prefer your doctor and hospital incompetence NOT KNOWING? OR NOT DOING?

If they were competent at all they would have done something from this back in 2001. But they incompetently didn't do anything, did they?

The Role of Sensory Impairments on Recovery and Rehabilitation After Stroke

Abstract

Purpose of Review

The current review aims to address critical gaps in the field of stroke rehabilitation related to sensory impairment. Here, we examine the role and importance of sensation throughout recovery of neural injury, potential clinical and experimental approaches for improving sensory function, and mechanism-based theories that may facilitate the design of sensory-based approaches for the rehabilitation of somatosensation.

Recent Findings

Recently, the field of neurorehabilitation has shifted to using more quantitative and sensitive measures to more accurately capture sensory function in stroke and other neurological populations. These approaches have laid the groundwork for understanding how sensory impairments impact overall function after stroke. However, there is less consensus on which interventions are effective for remediating sensory function, with approaches that vary from clinical re-training, robotics, and sensory stimulation interventions.

Summary

Current evidence has found that sensory and motor systems are interdependent, but commonly have independent recovery trajectories after stroke. Therefore, it is imperative to assess somatosensory function in order to guide rehabilitation outcomes and trajectory. Overall, considerable work in the field still remains, as there is limited evidence for purported mechanisms of sensory recovery, promising early-stage work that focuses on sensory training, and a considerable evidence-practice gap related to clinical sensory rehabilitation.
