Use the labels in the right column to find what you want. Or you can go thru them one by one, there are only 29,112 posts. Searching is done in the search box in upper left corner. I blog on anything to do with stroke.DO NOT DO ANYTHING SUGGESTED HERE AS I AM NOT MEDICALLY TRAINED, YOUR DOCTOR IS, LISTEN TO THEM. BUT I BET THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET YOU 100% RECOVERED. I DON'T EITHER, BUT HAVE PLENTY OF QUESTIONS FOR YOUR DOCTOR TO ANSWER.
Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain!trillions and trillions of neuronsthatDIEeach day because there areNOeffective 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.

Developing an Assessment Method of Active Aging: University of Jyvaskyla Active Aging Scale
Objective: To develop an assessment method of active aging for research on older people.
Method:
A multiphase process that included drafting by an expert panel, a pilot
study for item analysis and scale validity, a feedback study with focus
groups and questionnaire respondents, and a test–retest study.
Altogether 235 people aged 60 to 94 years provided responses and/or
feedback.
Results: We developed a 17-item University of Jyvaskyla
Active Aging Scale with four aspects in each item (goals, ability,
opportunity, and activity; range 0-272). The psychometric and item
properties are good and the scale assesses a unidimensional latent
construct of active aging.
Discussion: Our scale assesses older
people’s striving for well-being through activities pertaining to their
goals, abilities, and opportunities. The University of Jyvaskyla Active
Aging Scale provides a quantifiable measure of active aging that may be
used in postal questionnaires or interviews in research and practice.
