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.

Effectiveness of repetitive magnetic stimulation in improving upper extremity function in post-stroke hemiparesis – A case report

It seems that that this research in February 2014 with this conclusion would mean the research you did wasn't needed.

The effects of repetitive peripheral magnetic stimulation on upper-limb spasticity and impairment in patients with spastic hemiparesis: a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled study

Conclusions

Therapy with rpMS increases sensory function in patients with severe limb paresis. The magnetic stimulation has, however, limited effect on spasticity and no effect on motor function.

ABSTRACT

Upper extremity (UE) motor deficits lead to significant disability and dependence in individuals, poststroke. Intense physiotherapy has found to be beneficial in restoring the UE function. Repetitive Magnetic Stimulation (rPMS) is a novel therapeutic modality which aids in the rehabilitation of stroke patients.
It utilizes high-intensity electromagnetic field to stimulate neuromuscular tissue which is found to be beneficial in pain management and other effects such as fracture healing, myostimulation, joint mobilization and spasticity reduction. The rPMS have found to decrease spasticity and bring about muscle balance by relaxing spastic muscles and stimulating antagonistic muscles respectively. Although rPMSis widely used all over the world, literature on the Indian population is lacking. This case report is the first from India which describes the beneficial effects of rPMS in UE rehabilitation of a post-stroke individual using BTL6000 Super Inductive System. © 2020 Published by Innovative Publication.
