Deans' stroke musings: INFLUENCE OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES ON POST-STROKE REHABILITATION

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.

INFLUENCE OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES ON POST-STROKE REHABILITATION

You're ignoring THE FACT THAT 100% RECOVERY DOESN'T EXIST YET! GET THERE!

ABSTRACT:
The rapid development of new technologies contributes to the improvement of telemedicine and telerehabilitation. Telepractices in modern rehabilitation have a positive impact on functional, motor, and cognitive recovery.
The aim of the present study is to investigate and analyze the possibilities of new technologies for functional recovery and cognitive functions in rehabilitation after a stroke.
Material and Methods: A systematic search of the PubMed, Embase, and Google Scholar databases was performed. The search was conducted from March to August 2024 using the keyword "telerehabilitation", "E-rehabilitation ", "occupational therapy ", and "stroke ".
Results: Stroke recovery is a complex and lengthy process. The functional telerehabilitation system facilitates therapeutic intervention by using interactive virtual environments and biomedical technologies. Applied rehabilitation training programs with new technologies have a positive effect and significantly restore the functional level after a stroke in self-care, motor abilities of the upper limbs (dexterity of movements, grip strength, kinematics), cognitive abilities (attention, memory, visual-spatial abilities), and locomotion.
Conclusion: Modern telerehabilitation is a relatively new approach with unlimited applications. Telepractice facilitates the access of stroke patients to health services and supports the recovery of impaired function to the maximum extent, permanently improving independence and quality of life.

(But it doesn't work! So, also a complete failure of 10% full recovery)
