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.

Statins use and outcome of acute ischemic stroke patients after systemic thrombolysis

You mean it is not a standard protocol to give statins post stroke to improve recovery? 

Statins.

tested in rats from 2003

And now lost even to the Wayback Machine

So I think this below is the actual research;

This retrospective review was undertaken to determine the impacts of statins and their intensity on symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) and result following IV thrombolysis (IVT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS). For all the patients managed with IVT for AIS during a 10-year span, the medical records and cerebrovascular images were analyzed. Comparison was performed between statin users vs non-users and also between high-intensity vs low-intensity groups, in terms of safety and discharge modified Rankin Score. Findings demonstrated no significant link between risk of sICH and poor outcome post-IVT for patients on prior statin treatment. There was no significant link between the risk of sICH and poor result following IVT and the intensity of the stain employed.
