Many medical decisions require shared decision making

This comes from KevinMDs blog. This should be extremely applicable to us in our rehabilitation journey. The problem is that there is no factual basis for  our therapies. we should be able to get something like;
This therapy has a 20% success rate when followed for 3 months.
vs. this therapy has a 50% success rate when followed for 6 months.
Until we get to that level of knowledge everything we do is just a shot in the dark. We can't accept the standard reply, 'All strokes are different, all stroke recoveries are different'. Thats just pure laziness on whomever said that to you.
